Forebrain Organization in Elasmobranchs
Brain, Behavior and Evolution, 2012It has long been known that many elasmobranch fishes have relatively large brains. The telencephalon, in particular, has increased in size in several groups, and as a percent of total brain weight, it is as large as in some mammals. Little is known, however, about the organization, connections, and functions of the telencephalon in elasmobranchs. Early

So long ago as 1858, Staedeler and Frerichs1 discovered the presence of large amounts of urea in three species of elasmobranch fishes. Many more have been examined since that time, and it is known to-day that many, and probably all marine, elasmobranchs, including the Holocephali, contain 2–2.5 per cent of urea in their blood and tissues.

The elasmobranch pupillary response
Vision Research, 1971Abstract The rate and extent of the pupillary response to light and darkness were determined for a variety of sharks and rays. Dilation required 1–60 min and constriction 1–30 min, depending on the species. All responses were non-consensual. The dilator muscle was controlled by the third cranial nerve, which probably exerts a constant dilatory tonus ...

Morphological abnormalities in elasmobranchs
Journal of Fish Biology, 2015A total of 10 abnormal free‐swimming (i.e. post‐birth) elasmobranchs are reported from The (Persian–Arabian) Gulf, encompassing five species and including deformed heads, snouts, caudal fins and claspers. The complete absence of pelvic fins in a milk shark Rhizoprionodon acutus may be the first record in any elasmobranch. Possible causes, including the
