Compagno Tiburon Center for Environmental Studies San Francisco State University Tiburon, California 94920, USA Prepared with support from the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) and the American Elasmobranch Society UNITED NATIONS DEVELOPMENT PROGRAMME FOOD AND AGRICULTURE ORGANIZATION OF THE UNITED NATIONS Rome 1984 PREPARATION OF THIS DOCUMENT The present publication, prepared under the UNDP/FAO Project for the Survey and Identification of World- Marine Fish Resources (GLO/82/001), is the fourth worldwide species catalogue issued within the FAO Fisheries Synopses series. Work on this catalogue was initiated by the author many years ago with the preparation of a simple list of shark species including only most elementary information such as scientific synonymies, geographical distributions, sizes, etc., preceded by an illustrated key to shark families. However, with the evolvement of a more ambitious format for the series, and parallel to the preparation of the volumes on scombrids and cephalopods, it became necessary to expand the original manuscript very substantially, a task which the author accomplished with his usual enthousiasm and thoroughness, in spite of the difficult conditions under which he had to work during the past years. The work was facilitated by the author's involvement in several regional sets of FAD Species Identification Sheets for Fishery Purposes, e.g. the Western Central Atlantic, Eastern Central Atlantic and Western Indian Ocean, but the numerous gaps in information on species from the Indo-Pacific region could not have been filled without the author's recent extensive field work in that area, which was made possible thanks to the support of several institutions both within and outside the USA, coordinated by the American Elasmobranch Society. In the final stages of the work, the author could count on the generous assistance Institute of the J.L.B. Smith of Ichthyology, Grahamstown, South Africa. The indexes of scientific and common international FAO species names and of local species names were prepared in collaboration with FAO's Fishery Information, Data and Statistics Service. Illustrations were adapted and redrawn by a wide variety of sources, especially from Okutani (1980). Illustrators : P. Lastrico (principal illustrator), O. Lidonnici, E. D'Antoni and P.-L. Isola, FAO, Rome. FAO Family and Species names in French: J.-C. Quéro, Institut Scientifique et Technique des Pêches Maritimes, La Rochelle, France. Technical Editors : W. Fischer and C.E. Nauen, Fishery Resources and Environment Division, FAO. ABSTRACT This is the fourth in the FAO series of worldwide annotated and illustrated catalogues of major groups of organisms that enter marine fisheries. The present volume includes 342 shark.species belonging to 8 orders and 31 families. It provides a comprehensive and illustrated key to all orders and families of sharks, with a glossary of technical terms and measurements. Within each family are given individual accounts of species, which include drawings, scientific and vernacular names, informa- tion on habitat, biology and fisheries, and a distribution map; for most families there is also a key to genera. The work is fully indexed and there is ample reference to pertinent literature.

The term Elasmobranchs or chondrichthyans refers to the The great majority of the commercially important species of group of marine organisms with a skeleton made of cartilage. chondrichthyans are elasmobranchs. The latter are named They include sharks, skates, rays and chimaeras.

In total, there are about 869+ extant species group of bony fishes in the characteristics like cartilaginous of elasmobranchs, with about 400+ of those being sharks skeleton, absence of swim bladders and presence of five and the rest skates and rays.

    A5 By-catch Species APPENDIX 5: BY-CATCH SPECIES A.5 By-catch species By-catch is the unintentional/incidental capture of non-target species during fishing operations. Different types of fisheries have different types and levels of by-catch, depending on the gear used, the time, area and depth fished, etc. Article IV of the Convention states: "the Commission shall be responsible for the study of the population of tuna and tuna-like fishes (the Scombriformes with the exception of Trichiuridae and Gempylidae and the genus Scomber) and such other species of fishes exploited in tuna fishing in the Convention area as are not under investigation by another international fishery organization". The following is a list of by-catch species recorded as being ever caught by any major tuna fishery in the Atlantic/Mediterranean. Note that the lists are qualitative and are not indicative of quantity or mortality. Thus, the presence of a species in the lists does not imply that it is caught in significant quantities, or that individuals that are caught necessarily die.

  • Florida's Fintastic Sharks and Rays Lesson and Activity Packet
    Florida's Fintastic Sharks and Rays An at-home lesson for grades 3-5 Produced by: This educational workbook was produced through the support of the Indian River Lagoon National Estuary Program. 1 What are sharks and rays? Believe it or not, they’re a type of fish! When you think “fish,” you probably picture a trout or tuna, but fishes come in all shapes and sizes. All fishes share the following key characteristics that classify them into this group: Fishes have the simplest of vertebrate hearts with only two chambers- one atrium and one ventricle. The spine in a fish runs down the middle of its back just like ours, making fish vertebrates. All fishes have skeletons, but not all fish skeletons are made out of bones. Some fishes have skeletons made out of cartilage, just like your nose and ears. Fishes are cold-blooded. Cold-blooded animals use their environment to warm up or cool down. Fins help fish swim. Fins come in pairs, like pectoral and pelvic fins or are singular, like caudal or anal fins. Later in this packet, we will look at the different types of fins that fishes have and some of the unique ways they are used. 2 Placoid Ctenoid Ganoid Cycloid Hard protective scales cover the skin of many fish species. Scales can act as “fingerprints” to help identify some fish species. There are several different scale types found in bony fishes, including cycloid (round), ganoid (rectangular or diamond), and ctenoid (scalloped). Cartilaginous fishes have dermal denticles (Placoid) that resemble tiny teeth on their skin.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.
