Élasmobranches (requins et raies) (sharks and rays) > Carcharhiniformes (Ground sharks) > Carcharhinidae (Requiem sharks)
Etymology: Carcharhinus: karcharos (Gr.), sharp or jagged; rhinus, an ancient name for sharks, from rhine (Gr.), rasp, both words alluding to a shark's jagged, rasp-like skin. (See ETYFish); hemiodon: hemi-, from hemisys (Gr.), half; odon (Gr.), tooth, allusion not explained, perhaps referring to how teeth on upper jaw are serrated basally and smooth distally. (See ETYFish).

Épines dorsales (Total) : 0; Épines anales: 0. Grey above, white below, with the tips of the pectorals, and upper and lower caudal-fin lobes black; other fins dusky (Ref. 9997).

A little-known shark found on the continental and insular shelves (Ref. 244). Reports from river mouths and rivers are based on old records that need verification (Ref. 9997). Probably feeds on small fishes, cephalopods, and crustaceans (Ref. 9997). Viviparous (Ref. 50449). Utilized fresh for human consumption (Ref. 9997).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 25.2 - 29.1, mean 28.3 °C (based on 844 cells).

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

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00479 (0.00221 - 0.01036), b=3.09 (2.92 - 3.26), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Niveau trophique (Ref. 69278): 4.2 ±0.58 se; based on food items.

Résilience (Ref. 120179): Faible, temps minimum de doublement de population : 4,5 à 14 années (Fec assumed to be <100).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Very high vulnerability (90 of 100).

Catégorie de prix (Ref. 80766): Medium.
