Age, Growth, and Reproduction of the Pelagic Thresher Shark, Alopias pelagicus in the Northwestern Pacific

Copeia, 1999
Age, growth, and reproduction of Alopias pelagicus are described based on 831 specimens (508 females and 323 males) collected from September 1993 to August 1995 in waters off northeastern Taiwan. Alopias pelagicus embryos are oophagous. Five developmental stages (two encapsulated and three posthatching) are recognized.

Spawning per recruit analysis of the pelagic thresher shark, Alopias pelagicus, in the eastern Taiwan waters

Fisheries Research, 2006
Abstract The pelagic thresher shark, Alopias pelagicus , is a cosmopolitan species and abundant in Taiwan waters. Some of its biological information has been documented yet its population dynamics are poorly known. The purpose of this study is to assess the pelagic thresher shark stock status in the eastern Taiwan waters.

Bioaccumulation and trophic transfer of potentially toxic elements in the pelagic thresher shark Alopias pelagicus in Baja California Sur, Mexico

Marine Pollution Bulletin, 2020
Pelagic thresher shark (Alopias pelagicus) is a circumglobal species with high ecological and economic importance. Concentrations of mercury, selenium and cadmium in the muscle and liver tissues of A. pelagicus captured from Baja California Sur, Mexico were determined for assessing the potential human hazard.

Diet composition and feeding habits of the pelagic thresher shark Alopias pelagicus in Eastern Central Pacific Ocean, Ecuadorian waters

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2020
AbstractThe diet and feeding habits of the pelagic thresher shark Alopias pelagicus were analysed based on 104 stomachs (N = 84 females, 20 males) collected off Santa Rosa de Salinas, in the Ecuadorian Pacific. The sharks were caught between February 2008 and January 2009 in artisanal fisheries. The trophic spectrum of A.

Demographic analysis of the pelagic thresher shark, Alopias pelagicus, in the north-western Pacific using a stochastic stage-based model

Marine and Freshwater Research, 2010
The pelagic thresher shark, Alopias pelagicus, like most large sharks produces a low number of offspring (two embryos per litter). However, there is no accurate information on its population status. To improve the accuracy of population simulations, a stochastic stage-based birth-flow model was constructed to assess the stock status of the pelagic ...

[Patterns of maternal transfer of trace elements in the pelagic thresher shark (Alopias pelagicus) of the Eastern Pacific Ocean].

Ying yong sheng tai xue bao = The journal of applied ecology, 2021
Pelagic sharks are vulnerable to overfishing due to slow growth rates, late-at-maturity and low fecundity, 90% of which are Near Threatened with an elevated risk of extinction according to IUCN Red List Criteria. Trace elements can be accumulated by marine predators and may have detrimental effects on population dynamics. In this study, we analyzed the

An enigmatic new tapeworm, Litobothrium aenigmaticum, sp. nov. (Platyhelminthes : Cestoda: Litobothriidea), from the pelagic thresher shark with comments on development of known Litobothrium species

Invertebrate Systematics, 2014
An enigmatic new tapeworm is described from pelagic thresher sharks in México and Taiwan. While lsrRNA (D1-D3) data robustly place it in the Litobothriidea, it bears essentially no morphological resemblance to other members of the order. Instead it superficially resembles the freshwater fish-inhabiting Caryophyllidea.
