, 2019 Triaenodon obesus (Rüppell) (Fig. 4A) A tissue sample was taken from a frozen specimen of Triaenodon obesus (SL-119) that had been collected earlier in 2018 from the Negombo fish market in Negombo in the Western Province. This specimen has now been deposited in the BRT Ichthyology Collection (BRT-I 0031).

Journal of Fish Biology, 2018 Occurrence of multiple whitetip reef sharks Triaenodon obesus in the Atlantic Ocean is reported for the first time from near a sunken ferry off the Paraná coast in south‐eastern Brazil. This occurrence is hypothesized to have been caused by either a human introduction or a remarkably long oceanic displacement.

The Overlooked Threat of Global Warming on Elasmobranch Fertility
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 27, Issue 1, Page 41-55, January 2026.ABSTRACT Climate change is increasingly recognised as a critical threat to global biodiversity, yet its impacts on reproductive processes remain poorly understood in many marine taxa. Elasmobranchs (sharks, skates and rays) represent a particularly vulnerable group due to their peculiar life histories, low fecundity, and diverse reproductive modes.

From Data Deficient to Big Data in Shark Conservation
Fish and Fisheries, Volume 26, Issue 6, Page 977-990, November 2025.ABSTRACT Citizen science is increasingly harnessed worldwide to gather data otherwise requiring a prohibitive investment of funding and time. Meanwhile, the revolution in digital communication offers opportunities from crowdsourcing, big data approaches and social network mining to quickly and cost‐effectively fill major gaps in knowledge necessary to ...

Effects of protection on large‐bodied reef fishes in the western Indian Ocean
Conservation Biology, Volume 39, Issue 4, August 2025.Abstract Predatory and large‐bodied coral reef fishes have fundamental roles in the functioning and biodiversity of coral reef ecosystems, but their populations are declining, largely due to overexploitation in fisheries. These fishes include sharks, groupers, Humphead wrasse (Cheilinus undulatus), and Green Humphead parrotfish (Bolbometopon muricatum).
