Deania hystricosa

Description

Deania hystricosa (Garman, 1906)

Rough Longnose Dogfish

Acanthidium hystricosum Garman, 1906: 206. Holotype (unique): MCZ 1130 -S [ex Owston #7784] (missing). Type locality: Sagami Bay, Japan.

Local synonymy: Deania hystricosum: Compagno, 1999: 114. Deania hystricosa: Compagno et al., 2005: 88, pl. 5; Ebert et al., 2013 a: 108, fig., pl. 7; Compagno, 2016: 1175; Weigmann, 2016: 891.

South Africa voucher material: None.

South Africa distribution: Possibly off the west coast (NC & WC), but the occurrence in South African waters is uncertain.

Remarks: Compagno (1999) listed this species as occurring in southern African waters, while Compagno et al. (2005) reported it occurs off the west coast of South Africa. However, the occurrence of this species in South African waters requires confirmation since no specimens are currently available for examination.

Conservation status: DD (2009).
