Centrophorus cf. lusitanicus

Type locality: possibly undescribed.

The two Taiwanese samples C. cf. lusitanicus included in this analysis (GN10189 and GN10190) formed a single cluster with another sample identified as Centrophorus sp. 2 (GN974; see Naylor et al., 2012a, b) also from Taiwan (Supplementary Material 1, Figure 1). These three samples are similar to a sample identified as C. sp. 3 (GN4348) from the Philippines. They are distinct from a morphologically similar species from off Madagascar, which has also been informally identified as C. cf. lusitanicus (GN2011). This species is closest morphologically to C. lusitanicus described from off Portugal but is considered to be distinct from this species and probably undescribed. A comprehensive taxonomic revision of this genus, including this species, is in progress.
