Elasmobranquios (tiburones y rayas) (sharks and rays) > Carcharhiniformes (Ground sharks) > Triakidae (Houndsharks) > Triakinae
Etymology: Mustelus: Latin for weasel, an ancient name for sharks, possibly referring to the pointed snouts, swift movements and/or rapacious feeding behavior of smaller predatory sharks [strictly not tautonymous with Squalus mustelus Linnaeus 1758 since type was designated by the ICZN]. (See ETYFish); lenticulatus: Latin for freckled, referring to peppering of white spots on upper sides. (See ETYFish).

Maturity: L_m 90.9, range 79 - 100 cm
Max length : 125 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 9072); 151.0 cm TL (female); common length : 85.0 cm TL macho / no sexado; (Ref. 9258)

Found on the insular shelves, often close inshore (Ref. 244). Feeds on crustaceans, especially crabs (Ref. 244). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 50449). Makes seasonal inshore-offshore movements (Ref. 244). Makes extensive coastal migrations, with one tagged female moving at least 1160 km (Ref. 54100). Forms schools separated by size and sex (Ref. 244). Utilized fresh for human consumption (Ref. 244).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 8.6 - 18.3, mean 13.7 °C (based on 370 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00186 (0.00109 - 0.00319), b=3.14 (2.99 - 3.29), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Nivel trófico (Ref. 69278): 3.5 ±0.3 se; based on diet studies.

Generation time: 10.0 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 2 growth studies.

Resiliencia (Ref. 120179): Bajo, población duplicada en un tiempo mínimo de 4.5-14 años (tmax=12+; K=0.11-0.16; tm=3-4; Fec=2-23).
