( Figs. 4D View FIGURE 4 , 15 View FIGURE 15 A–D)

One specimen (SL-78) of Hemipristis elongata was collected from the deep-sea longline fishery in Mutur, Trincomalee Harbor in the Eastern Province. That specimen was morphologically consistent with H. elongata . It clustered most closely with our reference specimen (KA-22; JQ519069 View Materials ) of this species collected from Indonesian, Borneo in the tree resulting from the Neighbor-Joining analysis, and differed from the latter specimen by only a single bp. This specimen has been deposited in the BRT Ichthyology Collection (BRT-I 0018).

This is the name currently applied to this species in Sri Lanka (e.g., De Silva 1984 –1985, 2006, 2015; De Bruin et al. 1995; Morón et al. 1998; Joseph 1999).
