Mating in the reef white-tip shark Triaenodon obesus

Marine Biology, 1985
Mating reef white-tip sharks, Triaenodon obesus, were observed and photographed in shallow waters of the Hawaiian Islands. The sharks copulated in a stationary parallel orientation with their heads on the bottom and bodies angled upwards approximately 45° into the water column.

Serum T4 and serum T3 concentrations in immature captive whitetip reef sharks,Triaenodon obesus

The Journal of Experimental Zoology, 1999
Serum T(3) (3,5,3' triiodothyronine) and serum T(4) (thyroxine) concentrations were repetitively assayed by radioimmunoassay over a three-year period in two male and two female immature captive whitetip reef sharks, Triaenodon obesus. These sharks were maintained at the Waikiki Aquarium, Honolulu, Hawaii, in an open system holding pool receiving 568 ...

Oceanic dispersal in a sedentary reef shark (Triaenodon obesus): genetic evidence for extensive connectivity without a pelagic larval stage [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Biogeography, 2011
AbstractAim  Most reef fishes are site‐attached, but can maintain a broad distribution through their highly dispersive larval stage. The whitetip reef shark (Triaenodon obesus) is site‐attached, yet maintains the largest Indo‐Pacific distribution of any reef shark while lacking the larval stage of bony (teleost) fishes.

Group courtship, mating behaviour and siphon sac function in the whitetip reef shark, Triaenodon obesus

Animal Behaviour, 2004
We analysed video records of three mating events involving nine free-living whitetip reef sharks in Cocos Islands, Costa Rica to examine reproductive behaviour in this species. We describe several behaviours never before documented in this species, and four behaviours never before documented in any elasmobranch.

Developmental Stages of Paralebion elongatus from Aquarium-Held Reef Whitetip Sharks (Triaenodon obesus) Captured in Hawaiian Waters

Journal of Parasitology, 1992
Adult male and female, nauplius 1 and 2, and preadult 1 and 2 stages of Paralebion elongatus Wilson, 1911 (Copepoda: Euryphoridae) are redescribed and described, respectively, from specimens collected from aquarium-held reef whitetip sharks (Triaenodon obesus) captured in Hawaiian waters.
