Spatial variability of Chondrichthyes in the northern Mediterranean
Scientia Marina, 2019 Thanks to the availability of the MEDITS survey data, a standardized picture of the occurrence and abundance of demersal Chondrichthyes in the northern Mediterranean has been obtained.

The mitogenomic phylogeny of the Elasmobranchii (Chondrichthyes)
Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2017 Here we present a mitogenomic perspective on the evolution of sharks and rays, being a first glance on the complete mitochondrial history of such an old and diversified group of vertebrates. The Elasmobranchii is a diverse subclass of Chondrichthyes, or cartilaginous fish, with about 1200 species of ocean- and freshwater-dwelling fishes spread all over

The evolution of sexual dimorphism in Chondrichthyes: drivers, uncertainties, and future directions
Environmental Biology of Fishes, 2023 Sexual dimorphisms are abundant in natural systems; however, their ecological and evolutionary significance have largely been neglected with respect to Chondrichthyes.

Diversity, 2022 Elasmobranchii are relatively well-studied. However, numerous phylogenetic uncertainties about their relationships remain. Here, we revisit the phylogenetic evidence based on a detailed morphological re-evaluation of all the major extant batomorph clades

Journal of Anatomy, 2022 The lifelong tooth replacement in elasmobranch fishes (sharks, rays and skates) has led to the assemblage of a great number of teeth from fossil and extant species, rendering tooth morphology an important character for taxonomic descriptions, analysing ...

Zoology in the Middle East, 2022 Sharks are one of the most threatened groups of marine animals because of high exploitation rates coupled with low resilience to fishing pressure. We provide information on the current status of the young sharks caught in fishing nets in Iskenderun and ...

Bioenergetic Model of the Highly Exploited Shark Mustelus schmitti under a Global Warming Context
Diversity, 2023 Bioenergetic models are tools that allow the evaluation of the effect of environmental variables on fish growth. Successful implementation of this approach has been achieved in a few elasmobranch species. Our objective was to develop a bioenergetic model
