Squatinidae (Angel sharks)
Etymology: Squatina: Latin for skate, which angel sharks superficially resemble, presumably tautonymous with Squalus squatina Linnaeus 1758 (no species mentioned). (See ETYFish); pseudocellata: pseudo-, from pseudes (Gr.), false; ocellata (L.), having little eyes (ocelli), referring to indistinct ocellate markings on pectoral fins. (See ETYFish).

Estimates based on models
Preferred temperature (Ref.
123201): 14.1 - 20.4, mean 18.9 °C (based on 8 cells).
Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref.

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00676 (0.00293 - 0.01558), b=3.07 (2.88 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref.

Nível Trófico (Ref.
69278): 3.9 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliência (Ref.
