First record of bottom-feeding behaviour in the whale shark (Rhincodon typus).

Journal of Fish Biology, 2023
Despite being the world's largest fish, many questions remain regarding the ecology and behaviour of the whale shark (Rhincodon typus). We present the first direct evidence of whale sharks engaging in bottom-feeding behaviour and provide potential ...

Mercury Concentrations in Whale Shark (Rhincodon typus) Embryo Muscle Tissue

Bulletin of Environmental Contamination and Toxicology, 2023
Mercury (Hg) is known to be maternally transferred during embryonic development in sharks; however, Hg concentrations in embryos of filter feeding shark species have not previously been reported. This study measured the total Hg (THg) concentration in muscle tissue of 27 embryos taken from a pregnant whale shark (Rhincodon typus) landed in Taiwan in ...

Occurrence of whale sharks (Rhincodon typus) in Madagascar

Fisheries Research, 2007
Whale sharks are known to occur in Malagasy waters although very little research has been completed to further document the species. In order to increase the current national knowledge of the species, it is planned to conduct whale shark surveys in Madagascar.

Observations on the Whale Shark (Rhincodon typus) in the Dutch Caribbean

Caribbean Journal of Science, 2013
Records of whale sharks in the Caribbean are relatively sparse. Here we document 24 records of whale sharks (Rhincodon typus Smith 1882) for the Dutch Caribbean, four for the windward islands of Saba, St. Eustatius and St. Maarten, and twenty for the southern Caribbean leeward islands of Aruba, Curacao and Bonaire.

Isolation and characterization of microsatellite loci in the whale shark (Rhincodon typus)

Molecular Ecology Resources, 2009
AbstractIn preparation for a study on population structure of the whale shark (Rhincodon typus), nine species‐specific polymorphic microsatellite DNA markers were developed. An initial screening of 50 individuals from Holbox Island, Mexico found all nine loci to be polymorphic, with two to 17 alleles observed per locus.

A review of the biology, fisheries and conservation of the whale shark Rhincodon typus

Journal of Fish Biology, 2012
Although the whale shark Rhincodon typus is the largest extant fish, it was not described until 1828 and by 1986 there were only 320 records of this species. Since then, growth in tourism and marine recreation globally has lead to a significant increase in the number of sightings and several areas with annual occurrences have been identified, spurring ...
