First record of the Greenland shark Somniosus microcephalus (Squaliformes: Somniosidae) in the Siberian Arctic with notes on its distribution and biology
2015
Overview
The first record of the Greenland shark Somniosus microcephalus (Somniosidae) at the northern boundary of the Laptev Sea (78°04.3 N, 133°24.4 E) is described; this site is 1500 km eastward of any earlier records for this species in the Barents Sea and adjacent regions of the Kara Sea. A young male with an total length of 260 cm was caught in September 2014 by a bottom trawl at a depth of 240 m. Maps of the capture sites for S. microcephalus individuals in the Barents Sea and adjacent waterbody are presented. It is assumed that this shark came to the continental slope of the Arctic Ocean with a relatively warm flow of Atlantic origin, running along the northern Arctic shelf edge.
