. Southern Africa has an unusually high percentage of scyliorhinid endemics with a total of two endemic genera and thirteen endemic species (Compagno et al, 1989; Compagno & Human, 2003; Human, 2003, 2006a, 2006b; Human & Compagno, 2006). Another unique feature of southern African scyliorhinids is their inshore habit. Typically, most scyliorhinids are found on the continental shelf or continental slope in waters greater than one hundred meters in depth (Springer, 1979). In particular, species from the genera

The low catches of “shyshark” reported by Guastella (1993) and Pradervand (1999) are due to a lack of reporting rather than low catch rates (pers. obs.). The greatest source of fishing pressure for

than demersal trawls, (D. Ebert, pers. comm.). Due to the heavy fishing of scyliorhinid species in southern African waters, either directed or as bycatch, and the apparent rarity of some forms, it is necessary to understand the scyliorhinid biodiversity of the region to properly manage and conserve these sharks. The morphological conservation within the group and varying colour patterns, particularly in

Species identification of this group has been historically problematic and stems from the use of colour patterns, that have proven to be variable, and poor choice of morphological characters in species identification keys. Juvenile specimens that are difficult to identify with confidence further complicate species identification, and it is possible that hybridisation may be occurring between species of this genus. Many of the registered specimens that were examined in the current study proved to be misidentified, and this study aims to provide a baseline for species identification, and highlight issues of species identification in this genus that require further research. It is hoped that increasing identification accuracy will encourage more accurate catch data reporting and research on these sharks, as there are still many unanswered questions, particularly for
