Unusual presence of atlantic sharpnose shark (Rhizoprionodon terraenovae) neonates in a coastal lagoon in southeast Gulf of Mexico
This study reports for the first time the presence of Rhizoprionodon terraneovae neonates in a coastal lagoon in the southeastern Gulf of Mexico. The observations suggest the presence of neonates was due to the salinity values being similar to those of the coastal zone (32 ppt) and that they may hav...

| description | This study reports for the first time the presence of Rhizoprionodon terraneovae neonates in a coastal lagoon in the southeastern Gulf of Mexico. The observations suggest the presence of neonates was due to the salinity values being similar to those of the coastal zone (32 ppt) and that they may have been attracted by the high presence of penaeid shrimp. The presence of this species in this lagoon supports the knowledge of the biology and ecology of the species, which will contribute to its proper fishing management. |
