Etymology: Somniosus: Latin for sleepy, reflecting Lesueur’s surmise that these sharks are slow or sluggish because of their relatively small fins (hence the name sleeper sharks). (See ETYFish);  rostratus: Latin for beaked, referring to its elongated rostrum. (See ETYFish).

पृष्ठीय रीढ़ (सम्पूर्ण) : 0; गुदा कांटा: 0. Diagnosis: Somniosus rostratus is distinguished from S. longus in having overall length of second dorsal shorter than first dorsal fin 76-88% (vs. almost equal 91-100%); horizontal diameter of eye less than 37% (mean 33%) of length from snout tip to eye (vs. >37, mean 46%); number of tooth rows in upper jaw 53 (vs. 56-57); and spiral valve counts 23 (vs. 26-27) (Ref. 50224).
