Can denticle morphology help identify southeastern Australian elasmobranchs?

open access: yesJournal of Fish Biology, Volume 104, Issue 6, Page 1848-1859, June 2024.
Abstract Elasmobranchs are covered in scale‐like structures called dermal denticles, comprising dentine and enameloid. These structures vary across the body of an individual and between species, and are frequently shed and preserved in marine sediments.

Comparison of traditional and molecular surveys of fish biodiversity in southern Te Wāhipounamu/Fiordland (Aotearoa/New Zealand)

open access: yesEnvironmental DNA, Volume 6, Issue 1, January–February 2024.
At the remote UNESCO Word Heritage Site Te Wāhipounamu, we show that eDNA analysis is a highly sensitive tool with strong potential for biodiversity surveys, which is still limited by the unavailability of local reference data. We hope that by demonstrating the extend of divergence between eDNA and more traditional tools in a real‐life case study of a ...

Earliest Danian outer neritic elasmobranch assemblages reveal an environmentally controlled faunal turnover at the Cretaceous–Palaeogene boundary in the northern Tethyan Realm (Austria)

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 10, Issue 1, January/February 2024.
Abstract This study reports elasmobranch remains from two fossil‐rich horizons in the earliest Danian Olching Formation at Waidach, Austria. These outer neritic assemblages complement previous fine‐scale bulk‐sampling of latest Maastrichtian horizons at Waidach and document a regional elasmobranch faunal turnover across the Cretaceous–Palaeogene (K–Pg)

Temporal niche partitioning as a potential mechanism for coexistence in two sympatric mesopredator sharks

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science
Global marine biodiversity declines require bold and ambitious plans to safeguard ecosystem services. Overfishing, habitat loss and projected climate impacts have yielded deleterious effects on marine predators, in particular, driving increasing threat ...
