Apristurus Garman, 1913: 96 View in CoL . Type species: Scyliorhinus indicus Brauer, 1906 . Type by original designation.
Remarks: The genus Apristurus has a complicated taxonomic history in South Africa, with two locally described species ( A. microps and A. saldanha ), but also may include another two or three unidentified species. These unidentified species along with additional material recently collected is presently being investigated to revise the southern Africa genus Apristurus (D.A. Ebert & J.A. Cordova, Moss Landing Marine Laboratories, unpubl. data).
