Management Can Make Shark Fisheries Sustainable: Evidence From Long‐Term Surveys
ABSTRACT Sustainable management of shark fisheries is challenging because sharks are highly vulnerable to fishing mortality. By analysing data from three independent scientific surveys between the early 1970s and late 2000s across three fishing regions in southern Australia, we show that conservative fisheries management following severe depletion ...

Some Pennsylvanian Chondrichthyan Spines from Nebraska [PDF]
Fragmentary, dermal spines of Pennsylvanian chondrichthyans from Cass and Sarpy counties, Nebraska, are described. Forms that have been identified include the genera Acondylacanthus, Amelacanthus, Bythiacanthus, and Physonemus and an indeterminate ...

Famennian chondrichthyan microremains from Morocco and Sardinia
New material from the Famennian of Morocco in the southern Maider comprises chondrichthyan teeth (Thrinacodus, Cobelodus, Denaea, Stethacanthus), actinopterygian remains (scales, teeth and hemilepidotrichium) and one acanthodian scale.

The effects of wear on the morphology and puncture force of shark teeth
Abstract Sharks continuously replace their teeth throughout their lives, replacing an entire row of teeth every one to 5 weeks. It has been hypothesized that this is due to tooth wear, rather than tooth breakage. However, little is known about how quickly teeth wear and what affect this wear has on tooth puncture performance.

A symmoriiform chondrichthyan braincase and the origin of chimaeroid fishes [PDF]
Chimaeroid fishes (Holocephali) are one of the four principal divisions of modern gnathostomes (jawed vertebrates). Despite only 47 described living species1, chimaeroids are the focus of resurgent interest as potential archives of genomic data2 and for ...

Early chondrichthyans (cartilaginous fishes) possess a rich record of scale fossils that have impacted on taxonomic and phylogenetic studies of early jawed vertebrates, but the significance of these scales remains elusive due to the lack of well-defined ...

This work brings new information on the sexual characteristics of the crocodile shark (Pseudocarcharias kamoharai) exploring the pelvic fin musculature, as well as the siphon sac and the musculature and skeleton of the clasper. Our paper is the first to point out clearly the sexual dimorphism related exclusively to the pelvic fin musculature in males ...
