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); investigatoris: -is, Latin genitive singular of: HMS Investigator station in Andaman Sea, where holotype was collected (See ETYFish).
Eponymy: Named after the Royal Indian Marine Survey vessel Investigator, which made collections of marine fauna in the period 1884–1926. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Estimates based on models
Índice de diversidade filogenética (Ref.

50 = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00355 (0.00175 - 0.00721), b=3.08 (2.90 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Nível Trófico (Ref.
69278): 3.7 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Resiliência (Ref.
