Etymology: Apristurus: a-, Latin privative, i.e., without; pristis, from pristes (Gr.), sawyer (but here meaning saw); oura (Gr.), tail, referring to absence of saw-toothed crest of enlarged dermal denticles along upper edge of caudal fin as found in the closely related Pristiurus (=Galeus). (See ETYFish); aphyodes: Greek for whitish, referring to its pale-gray coloration. (See ETYFish).

Estimates based on models
Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref.
82804): PD
50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00355 (0.00176 - 0.00714), b=3.09 (2.91 - 3.27), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.
93245).
Trofisch niveau (Ref.
69278): 3.9 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Weerstandsvermogen (Ref.
120179): Zeer laag, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd meer dan 14 jaar (Fec assumed to be <10).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (47 of 100).
Nutrients (Ref.
124155): Calcium = 68 [11, 679] mg/100g; Iron = 0.416 [0.082, 2.133] mg/100g; Protein = 18.2 [15.6, 20.9] %; Omega3 = 0.217 [0.047, 0.913] g/100g; Selenium = 3.5 [0.6, 22.8] μg/100g; VitaminA = 338 [26, 4,063] μg/100g; Zinc = 1.53 [0.54, 4.90] mg/100g (wet weight);
