Description
□ Carcharhinus limbatus (Müller & Henle, 1836)
– Blacktip shark; Tubarão-de-pontas-negras ①, ②, Tubarão or Anequim ③
Arruda (1997) considered a doubtful presence of C. limbatus off the Azores. Quéro et al. (2003) indicated the presence of the species in Portugal, without mentioning the geographical area of occurrence. Ebert & Stehmann (2013) indicated the presence of the species to southern mainland Portugal, based on its geographical distribution.
