Alopiidae View in CoL View at ENA (Thresher sharks)
No confirmed Gulf records. Goubanov & Shleib (1980) reported thresher shark Alopias vulpinus ( Bonnaterre, 1788) as “very seldom seen in the Gulf, only in its southern areas”, although Randall (1996) regarded this as doubtful. Bigeye thresher A. superciliosus ( Lowe, 1841) was regarded by Compagno et al. (2005) as possibly occurring in the Gulf, and both this species and the pelagic thresher A. pelagicus Nakamura, 1935 are known from Oman ( Henderson et al. 2007).
