Ελασμοβράγχιοι (καρχαρίες και σαλάχια) (sharks and rays) > Squaliformes (Sleeper and dogfish sharks) > Somniosidae (Sleeper sharks)
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); longus: Latin for long, perhaps referring to what Tanaka described as its “oblong” shape. (See ETYFish).

Short description Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία

Σπόνδυλοι: 77 - 79. Somniosus longus is distinguished from S. rostratus in having a relatively longer second dorsal fin where overall length is almost equal to first dorsal fin 91-100% (vs. 76-88%); slightly larger eye with horizontal diameter more than 37% (mean 46%) of length from snout tip to eye (vs. <37, mean 33%); higher number of tooth rows in upper jaw 56-57 (vs.53); and slightly higher spiral valve counts 26-27 (vs. 23 ) (Ref. 50224).

Caught by crab pot and bottom longline (Ref. 50224).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5313 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00168 - 0.00901), b=3.13 (2.94 - 3.32), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Τροφικό Επίπεδο (Ref. 69278): 4.1 ±0.4 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Very high vulnerability (78 of 100).
