Mustelus manazo Bleeker, 1855

Type locality: Nagasaki, Japan; northwestern Indian Ocean.

The four Taiwanese samples of M. manazo included in this analysis formed a single cluster that includes samples previously collected from Taiwan, Vietnam, Borneo and Japan (Supplementary Material 1; Naylor et al., 2012a). This clade falls within a group of seven closely-related Mustelus species, which form a distinct grouping separate to the other group of Mustelus which includes M. griseus (Supplementary Material 1).
