Adaptive loss of shortwave-sensitive opsins during cartilaginous fish evolution [PDF]
Nature CommunicationsCartilaginous fishes (e.g., sharks, rays, and skates) cannot see blue or violet light, potentially because they lack the shortwave-sensitive cone opsin gene (sws).

Biogeographic patterns in the cartilaginous fauna (Pisces: Elasmobranchii and Holocephali) in the southeast Pacific Ocean [PDF]
PeerJ, 2014 The abundance and species richness of the cartilaginous fish community of the continental shelf and slope off central Chile is described, based on fishery-independent trawl tows made in 2006 and 2007. A total of 194,705 specimens comprising 20 species (9

Revealing less derived nature of cartilaginous fish genomes with their evolutionary time scale inferred with nuclear genes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2013 Cartilaginous fishes, divided into Holocephali (chimaeras) and Elasmoblanchii (sharks, rays and skates), occupy a key phylogenetic position among extant vertebrates in reconstructing their evolutionary processes. Their accurate evolutionary time scale is

Multi-Model Approach on Growth Estimation and Association With Life History Trait for Elasmobranchs
Frontiers in Marine Science, 2021 Age and growth information is essential for stock assessment of fish, and growth model selection may influence the accuracy of stock assessment and subsequent fishery management decision making.

DNA barcode reveals the illegal trade of rays commercialized in fishmongers in Brazil
Forensic Science International: Synergy, 2020 Sequences of the mitochondrial gene COI (DNA Barcode) were used to identify species of rays and skates commercialized in fishmongers in Brazil. The comparisons of the obtained sequences with previously published data available in NCBI and BOLD showed ...
