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).
