Distribution in Macaronesia.
All references to Macaronesia seem to be based on literature and apparently no specimens have been caught in the area or at least were not deposited in museum collections (
Santos
et al
. 1997
;
Brito
et al
. 2002
;
Carneiro
et al
. 2014
;
Hanel & John 2014
).
Remarks.
Since there are neither reliable references nor specimens in collection, this species should be excluded from the list of Chondrichthyans of
Madeira
.
