Australian Blackspotted Catshark - Aulohalaelurus labiosus.
This was the second species I have been looking for in Western Australia. I finally ran into it on a solo night dive at Busselton Jetty.
Super stoked to get another new species!!! Elasmobranch number 263 :)
Final Rule - Retention Prohibition of Oceanic Whitetip Sharks in U.S. Atlantic Waters and Hammerhead Sharks in the U.S. Caribbean Sea (make sure to check the map below for clarity...) #sharkfisheries

Recent footage of a shark species seen during the #FalkorToo Kane Fracture Zone ROV dive. I’m thinking it’s a Portuguese dogfish (Centroscymnus coelolepis)… any selachologists out there want to weigh in? 🤔🦈@WhySharksMatter ? #shark #ROV #LostCityVents #MidAtlanticRidge
Wow!!
Live for another ROV Subastian dive at the Kane Fracture Zone! Who knows what we will find, like this deep sea shark we just happened upon! youtube.com/@SchmidtOcean/st…

New Paper! Knowing where anglers get their info helps us design better ways to connect with them and exchange information (our results and their information for management). Big thanks to @GuayJessika for her hard work on this human dimensions aspect of our work!
Really cool human dimensions work in partnership w @SharkStudies by former grad @GuayJessika on hidden connections b/w info channel use & pro-environmental behavior among shark anglers frontiersin.org/articles/10.…

Breakthrough genome sequences for endangered sharks rings alarms bells for great hammerheads, with signs of low diversity and inbreeding, but shows some slim hope for more diverse shortfin makos if fishing pressure is reduced:
