THREE NEW SHARK SPECIES THIS WEEK!

The second week of July 2023 something extraordinarily beautiful happened, the findings of 3 new species of sharks for were announced

A new angel sharks species was identified, from the western Indian Ocean on the Mascarene Plateau and off southwestern India in 100–500 m depths, the Lea’s angel shark Squatina leae, was recognized to be different genetically and morphologically distinct from its congeneric species Squatina africanae, following unique morphological features.  This species was first detected in 1988 after finding  three unusual, small sharks, but till today was completely understood. The angel shark is named after one of the author’s fiancee’s late sister, Lea-Marie Cordt.

-  Squatina leae, adult male, in dorsolateral.

Angel sharks are “flatter sharks”, possesing distinctly broad, dorsoventrally flattened bodies, a short snout with large mouth and nostrils, eyes on top of the head close to the large spiracles, very large pectoral fins, and a lateral caudal keel. They've evolved to be ambush predators, they lie in wait for prey to pass closely overhead before attacking.

From North Australia, another species of hornshark is described based on six whole specimens and a single egg case. The painted hornshark Heterodontus marshallae was previously considered to be the same with the zebra bullhead shark another well know bullhead shark from the central Indo-Pacific from Japan  to Australia, but genetic and morphological analyses indicated the sharks were different, but looking alike. The painted hornshark is endemic to northwestern Australia and occurs in deeper waters, at 125–229 m below surface.

The painted hornsharks is named in honour of Dr. Lindsay Marshall www.stickfigurefish.com.au a scientific illustrator and elasmobranch scientist who expertly painted all the sharks and rays of the world for the Chondrichthyan Tree of Life Project.

And from an unidentified shark egg collected from the deep waters of northwestern Australia, in 2011 recently helped researchers identify a new species of deep water cat shark. Called ridged-egg catshark Apristurus ovicorrugatus after its eggs, it was collected in the earlys 90 but remained unknown to date. This sharks presents white eyes, and is small in size, reaching less than a half meter in length. .

Egg cases belonging to this species had been documented as early as the 1980s, but could not be matched to any species of Australian shark until recently scientists examined a shark specimen of previously uncertain identity in the CSIRO collection.

Fish of the Day

Today's fish of the day is the Australian angelshark!

The Australian angelshark, known by scientific name Squatina australis, is a common coastal shark in Australia. The range of this shark stretches across the continental shelf of Southern Australia, from Western Australia to New South Wales. Living along the seabed, it survives at depths of 130-255 meters, or 430-840ft. This is where this shark will live on muddy or sandy seabed, which it uses to disguise itself, or seagrass beds, nearby rocky reefs where it will hunt.  

As a primarily nocturnal species, the Australian angelshark hunts in the night, searching for prey within rocky zones and reefs. The diet is made up of small fishes, crustaceans, and other invertebrates which it crushes between its sharp teeth. During the day, these sharks spend their time buried beneath the sand, hiding from potential predators, well remaining hidden from nearby prey, which it will lunge at once close enough. 

These sharks, like other angel sharks, are ovoviviparous, meaning that the young survive off of the egg casing inside of the uterus of the mother as they gestate, and litters of pups can get up to 20 pups at a time. Other than this, little is known of the breeding habits of the Australian Angelshark, but due to their close relation to the Pacific angel shark, we can estimate they may gestate their pups for around 10 months. From what we know of pacific angel sharks, we can assume a breeding season takes place in May-July, and birthing is done from March-June of the following year. Sexual maturity of the Australian angelshark is achieved at 90cm in length for males, and 97cm in length for females, and they can get as large as 152cm in length total. Although we don't know the lifespan of the Australian angelshark specifically, most angel sharks live lives of 20-25 years, going through around 15 breeding seasons throughout their lifespan.

Have a wonderful day, everyone!

[death-by-moth]

I am currently at the beach and this has gotten me thinking about Mermay, and I had some thoughts on what type of aquatic animals each of the TF2 mercs (plus Pauling, Admin, and Saxton Hale) would be. Here are my ideas so far:

Scout - Fourwing Flying fish

Soldier - Bull Shark

Pyro - Weedy Seadragon

Demoman - Black Marlin or Porcupine Pufferfish

Heavy - Beluga Whale

Engineer - Hardhead Catfish

Medic - Giant Moray Eel

Sniper - Common Lionfish or Banded Archerfish

Spy - European Common Cuttlefish

Miss Pauling - Sea Angel or Dumbo Octopus

The Administrator - Australian Box Jellyfish

Saxton Hale - Orca

(Might draw a couple of these sometime in the future if I have time!)

Oh and 27 and 28

questions game !!

27. An angel appears out of Heaven and offers you a lifetime supply of the alcoholic beverage of your choice. “Be brand-specific” it says. Man! What are you gonna say about that? Even if you don’t drink booze there’s something you can figure out… so what’s it gonna be?

as someone currently suffering an awful hangover right now, this feels slightly targeted. alas. i'm going to deviate slightly and not say a brand, but be absurdly specific anyway.

one of my cousins makes really fucking good margaritas. and i'm a sucker for a classic cocktail. so, margaritas specifically made by my cousin matt. idk how that would work, but the angel could sort it out i'm sure.

28. You discover a beautiful island upon which you may build your own society. You make the rules. What is the first rule you put into place? 

balance and sustainability, probably! for everything we take, we give back in some way.

the first thing that comes to mind is the aboriginal australian concepts of totems and moieties. i'm not aboriginal, so forgive me if i'm oversimplifying in a way that's not quite right (and by all means, correct and educate me further!). but there's this idea that in order to conserve and ensure the longevity of totems - which might be, for eg, sharks - members of one moiety would protect sharks, while the inverse would be able to eat/use sharks. everything is mirrored to retain balance.

since learning about it a couple of years ago the idea has stuck with me as a, genius, but b, inherently sensical. if i was given the opportunity to start fresh on natural grounds, i would probably take a lot of inspiration from native peoples. if i've learned anything, they knew what they were doing.
