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); antarcticus: -icus (L.), belonging to: the Antarctic (Whitley presumed this to be the first shark recorded from there) (See ETYFish).
