Pseudotriakidae View in CoL View at ENA (false catsharks)
Pseudotriakis microdon (false catshark) ( fig. 32)
Our analysis included three specimens of this species, all from the mid-Atlantic ridge. Thus, our material represents only one element of the wide and patchy distribution of this monotypic genus. The analysis yielded a single cluster with the three specimens being identical in sequence.
Gollum species ( fig. 32)
At present this genus formally includes only the New Zealand endemic, Gollum attenuatus . However, Compagno et al. (2005b) noted that a second, potentially undescribed species ( Gollum sp. 1 ), occurs in the Philippines (treated as Gollum sp. A by Compagno et al., 2005a). Our analysis included one specimen of G. attenuatus from New Zealand, and one specimen (GN2440 5 JPAG 229) of the potentially undescribed species, Gollum sp. 1 , from the Philippines. These two Gollum specimens were found to group together, but their sequences differed by 60, thus this supports the notion of these being separate species.
