Abstract
NAVIA, Andrés F. et al. Confirmation of the presence and latitudinal distribution of Echinorhinus cookei in the coastal zone of the Tropical Eastern Pacific. Bol. Invest. Mar. Cost. [online]. 2023, vol.52, n.2, pp.173-178. Epub July 02, 2024. ISSN 0122-9761. https://doi.org/10.25268/bimc.invemar.2023.52.2.1276.
The known distribution of the Pacific black spiny shark Echinorhinus cookei in the Eastern Pacific extends from Oregon (USA) to Costa Rica and from Ecuador to Chile, with gaps in the coastal areas of Panama and Colombia. This document confirms the presence of E. cookei in the Pacific coastal area of Colombia and suggest that its distribution is continuous throughout the latitudinal range in the Eastern Pacific.
