Hardnose shark

description Hardnose shark Overview

The hardnose shark is a requiem shark in the family Carcharhinidae and occurs in the western Indo-Pacific. It was scientifically described in 1839 and is named for the unusually hard, heavily calcified cartilage of its snout. The species is associated with coastal marine waters and is distinct from other requiem sharks in part because of this reinforced rostral structure.
