Low levels of genetic diversity have been frequently reported in other elasmobranchs (e.g.

The movements of three species of electrosensitive elasmobranchs (thornback ray (Raja clavata), spurdog (Squalus acanthias), and small-spotted catshark (Scyliorhinus canicula)) in enclosed mesocosms off Scotland containing either energized or unenergized cables were characterized [23].

Squaliform sharb (dogfihes) are one of two orders of elasmobranchs posessing dorsal fin spines (Clark and Irvine, 2006).

Spiny dogfish belong to the Squalidae family, that are unique among elasmobranchs as they usually have well-calcified dorsal spines that can be used for age estimation (Kaganovskaia, 1933; Templeman, 1944; Probatov, 1957; Holden and Meadows, 1962; Ketchen, 1975; Beamish and McFarlane, 1985; Rice et al., 2009).

Table 2 shows the results of univariate analysis of the fish and elasmobranch species that accounted most for the differences between fishing grounds as ascertained from the SIMPER analysis.

The American Elasmobranch Society established the Eugenie Clark Award, following the passing in February 2015 of Dr.

It appears that Point Cooke Marine Sanctuary is something of an elasmobranch haven, with at least six species of ray having been sighted within the boundaries of the sanctuary, including the Southern Fiddler Ray Trygonorrhina dumerilii, which is extremely common during the summer months in particular, and the eastern shovelnose stingaree Trygonoptera imitata, and Sparsely Spotted Stingaree Urolophus paucimaculatus, which can also be found in considerable numbers in the sanctuary.

Chapters include a close look at the evolution of adaptive immunity, elasmobranch blood cells, shark t-cell receptors and much more.

Besides the teeth of the elasmobranch Karksiodus and the scales of the putative chondrichthyan Karksilepis parva Marss, the vertebrate assemblage from the Karksi locality also contains the scales of typical chondrichthyans.
