A computer‐aided program for pattern‐matching of natural marks on the spotted raggedtooth shark Carcharias taurus

TL;DR: A computer-aided photo-identification technique that relies on natural marks to identify individuals of Carcharias taurus, a shark species that is critically endangered off the eastern Australian coast and considered globally vulnerable is presented.
Journal ArticleDOI

Population Structure and Speciation in the Genus Tursiops Based on Microsatellite and Mitochondrial DNA Analyses

TL;DR: Both mtDNA and microsatellite DNA data show significant differentiation, suggesting restricted gene flow for both males and females in bottlenose dolphins, and two coastal populations recently classified as belonging to a new species were each highly differentiated from populations of the truncatus morphotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Decadal trends in shark catches and effort from the New South Wales, Australia, Shark Meshing Program 1950–2010

TL;DR: Catches were consistently dominated by three shark taxa, hammerhead sharks (Sphyrna spp.), whaler sharks (Carcharhinus spp.) and Australian angel sharks (Squatina australis), although their relative contributions to catches varied over time, and four different monthly trends were observed in landings of the most abundant eight taxa.
Journal ArticleDOI

Phylogeography and alpha taxonomy of the common dolphin (Delphinus sp.)

TL;DR: High differentiation among the populations described as long‐beaked instead of the expected monophyly is found, suggesting that these populations may have evolved from independent events converging on the same morphotype.
Journal ArticleDOI

Conservation challenges of sharks with continental scale migrations

TL;DR: In this article, the authors examined the movements of bull sharks, Carcharhinus leucas, using acoustic telemetry arrays along the east coast of Australia and found that approximately half of 75 individuals released in temperate waters moved into tropical reef regions, with both sexes undertaking long-range movements.
