and Tasmanian specimens are also larger, relative to snout-vent length (11.5–12.9%) than for the South African specimens (9–10%) and for the Indian Ocean specimen (10.7%). Although some differences among specimens collected at different locations are present, so few specimens are available that it is unclear if these differences represent true geographic variation, ontogenetic variation, or artifacts of the small sample size. More specimens of similar sizes are needed for comparison.
