Scoliodon macrorhynchos
(Bleeker, 1852)
Type
locality: Jakarta, Java,
Indonesia
.
The four Taiwanese samples of
S. macrorhynchos
included in this analysis formed a single cluster that included previously collected samples from
Vietnam
,
Malaysia
and
Taiwan
(Supplementary Material 1; Naylor
et al.
, 2012a). This clade was sister to the
S. laticaudus
clade consisting of individuals from off
India
(Supplementary Material 1; Naylor
et al.
, 2012a). This species was recently resurrected as a valid nominal species following a taxonomic revision (White
et al.
, 2010) and the results of this study further support these findings.
