A Review of the Status of Sharks, Rays and Chimaeras of Panama to Guide Research and Conservation
ABSTRACT Chondrichthyan fishes (sharks, rays and chimaeras) are a group of high conservation concern globally. Species are impacted by varying threats, although fishing pressure is the primary stressor causing population declines. Panama comprises both Pacific and Caribbean coastlines with a diversity of estuarine and marine habitats supporting small ...

Abstract The “rhinorays” (giant guitarfish‐Glaucostegidae and wedgefish‐Rhinidae) are a critically endangered group of “shark‐like rays,” which have experienced steep global population declines in the past decade due to overfishing. Their slow life histories and high market value increase the risk of trade‐driven extinction and lead to trade‐offs ...

Eocene Shark Teeth From Peninsular Antarctica: Windows to Habitat Use and Paleoceanography
Abstract Eocene climate cooling, driven by the falling pCO2 and tectonic changes in the Southern Ocean, impacted marine ecosystems. Sharks in high‐latitude oceans, sensitive to these changes, offer insights into both environmental shifts and biological responses, yet few paleoecological studies exist.
