Elasmobranchii (sharks and rays) > Orectolobiformes (Carpet sharks) > Orectolobidae (Carpet or nurse sharks)
Etymology: Eucrossorhinus: eu (Gr.), very; Crossorhinus (= Orectolobus ), previous genus, from krossos (Gr.), fringe or tassel, referring to tassel of dermal lobes fringing the head, and rhinus , an ancient name for sharks, from rhine (Gr.), rasp, alluding to their rasp-like skin, or rhinos , snout, referring to “lobe-like attachments from the nose” (translation, from Müller & Henle’s 1837 description of Crossorhinus ). ( See ETYFish ) ;   dasypogon: dasys (Gr.), hairy; pogon (Gr.), beard, referring to dense beard-like tassel of dermal lobes fringing the head. ( See ETYFish ) .

Size / Weight / Age

Maturity: L m   ?   range ? - ? cm
Max length : 366 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 90102 ); common length : 180 cm TL male/unsexed; (Ref. 90102 )

Short description Morphology | Morphometrics

Dorsal spines (total): 0; Dorsal soft rays (total): 0; Anal spines : 0; Anal soft rays : 0. Body with a reticular pattern of narrow dark lines (Ref. 13577 ). Caudal fin with its upper lobe hardly elevated above the body axis, with a strong terminal lobe and subterminal notch but no ventral lobe (Ref. 13577 ).

Biology     Glossary (e.g. epibenthic)

A little-known shark (Ref. 247 ) found on the continental shelf and offshore reefs (Ref. 6871 ). Probably feeds on bottom fishes and invertebrates (Ref. 13577 , 43278 ); also known to eat nocturnal teleost fishes such as squirrelfish and soldierfish (Holocentridae) and sweepers (Pempheridae) (Ref. 43278 ). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 50449 ). Might bite in self-defense or when mistaking a human foot for its usual prey (Ref. 247 ). Its tough skin sometimes used for leather (Ref. 13577 ). The maximum length of 366 cm TL reported for this species is uncertain (Ref. 247 , 90102 ).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturity | Reproduction | Spawning | Eggs | Fecundity | Larvae

Ovoviviparous, embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449 ).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201 ): 26.2 - 28.8, mean 27.8 °C (based on 294 cells). Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804 ):  PD 50 = 1.0002   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high]. Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00389 (0.00180 - 0.00842), b=3.12 (2.94 - 3.30), in cm total length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245 ). Trophic level (Ref. 69278 ):  4.0   ±0.60 se; based on food items. Resilience (Ref. 120179 ):  Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Fec assumed to be <100). Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153 ):  Very high vulnerability (90 of 100). Nutrients (Ref. 124155 ):  Calcium = 1.57 [0.18, 7.23] mg/100g; Iron = 0.125 [0.027, 0.423] mg/100g; Protein = 19.4 [17.1, 21.6] %; Omega3 = 0.0936 [, ] g/100g; Selenium = 7.92 [2.19, 30.75] μg/100g; VitaminA = 13.4 [2.3, 84.0] μg/100g; Zinc = 0.248 [0.114, 0.523] mg/100g (wet weight);
