Literature, social media and questionnaire surveys identify relevant conservation areas for Carcharhinus species in the Mediterranean Sea

Carlo Cattano et al.

Summary: Sharks play an important role in maintaining ecosystem health, but their populations are decreasing globally. Limited knowledge on shark distribution and negative perceptions hinder effective conservation efforts. This study analyzed data from scientific literature and social media to map the distribution of Carcharhinus species in the Mediterranean Sea, identify conservation areas, and assess people's attitudes towards shark protection.

Too young to die: Mapping nursery areas for early juveniles of the endangered sandbar shark (Carcharhinus plumbeus) to inform conservation in the Mediterranean Sea

Matteo Barbato et al.

Summary: Elasmobranch species are declining globally due to fishery activities, including in the Mediterranean Sea. Identification of nursery grounds for species like the sandbar shark is crucial for effective conservation management. This study successfully identified a nursery site for early juveniles of the sandbar shark and predicted other potential nursery areas throughout the Mediterranean Sea using a species distribution model. The findings provide valuable information for conservation efforts and future monitoring.

Unexpected Records of Newborn and Young Sharks in Ligurian and North Tyrrhenian Seas (North-Western Mediterranean Basin)

Cecilia Mancusi et al.

Summary: Between 2007 and 2022, a total of 112 newborn and young pelagic sharks were recorded in the waters of Tuscany Region, north-western Mediterranean basin. These sharks belonged to six different species. The study provided valuable information on their identification, capture methods, and their status as newborns or juveniles. The coastal area studied was considered as a potential shark nursery.

Observations of juvenile sandbar sharks Carcharhinus plumbeus (Nardo, 1827) around the Bojana River delta (Southern Adriatic Sea)

Ilija Cetkovic et al.

Summary: The study reveals that the sandbar shark is more commonly found near the River Bojana in the southeastern Adriatic Sea, which is already known as a hotspot for smooth-hound sharks. Citizen science and reports from fishermen have contributed to the discovery of new records. The study also emphasizes the importance of the fragile estuarine ecosystem for the sandbar shark.

Sandbar shark aggregation in the central Mediterranean Sea and potential effects of tourism

C. Cattano et al.

Summary: This study found that a large aggregation of sandbar sharks occurs around Lampione island every July, but only a few in September. The presence of more divers and boats led to a decrease in the number of sharks at the aggregation site. The study emphasizes the need for further investigations on Mediterranean shark aggregations and the implementation of specific conservation measures in Lampione.

Overfishing drives over one-third of all sharks and rays toward a global extinction crisis

Nicholas K. Dulvy et al.

Summary: The IUCN Red List assessment reveals that over one-third of chondrichthyans are threatened with extinction, primarily due to overfishing. Species in tropical and subtropical coastal waters are disproportionately threatened. Urgent measures such as science-based fishing limits, effective marine protected areas, and strategies to reduce fishing mortality are needed to prevent further extinctions and ensure food security and ecosystem functions.

Using historical and citizen science data to improve knowledge about the occurrence of the elusive sandbar shark Carcharhinus plumbeus (Chondrichthyes - Carcharhinidae) in the Adriatic Sea

Patrick L. Jambura et al.

Summary: The study presents new records of the sandbar shark in the Adriatic Sea and reviews spatial and temporal data to assess its distribution and seasonality. The majority of records were of neonate and juvenile sandbar sharks, with identified hotspots for their occurrence. Citizen science initiatives suggest that this species is still present in the Adriatic Sea, demonstrating the potential of citizen science in monitoring rare and endangered species.

Evidence of a second nursery area of the sandbar shark, Carcharhinus plumbeus (Nardo, 1827) in the Eastern Mediterranean Sea

Nuri Basusta et al.

Summary: The sandbar shark is a large coastal shark species listed as Endangered in the Mediterranean Sea. The Yumurtalik Bight in Turkey was found to have neonate sandbar sharks, suggesting it may serve as a breeding and nursery ground for this species in addition to the Boncuk Cove.
