Foraging ecology of the early life stages of four sympatric shark species (2004, unknown): “…sharks Galeocerdo cuvier (Lowe et al. 1996), Galapagos sharks Carcharhinus galapagensis (Wetherbee et al. 1996), starspotteddogfish Mustelus manazo (Yamaguchi & Taniuchi 2000), dusky sharks Carcharhinus obscurus (Simpfendorfer et al. 2001), and sevengill sharks Notorhynchus cepedianus (Ebert 2002).”
Effects of body size, age and maturity stage on diet in a large shark: ecological and applied implications (2008, background): “…traits because the sharks usually experience ontogenetic dietary shifts (e.g., Cliff and Dudley 1991; Lowe et al. 1996; Simpfendorfer et al. 2001; Ebert 2002; Lucifora et al. 2005a), have a large absolute range of body size, mature over a range of sizes and ages, and continue growing after…”
Comparative feeding ecology of shortfin mako, blue and thresher sharks in the California Current (2012, background): “Size is known to be a key factor in diet diversity for a number of other shark species (Klimley 1985; Ebert 2002; Bethea et al. 2004), and the observed increase in diet richness is likely linked to a number of factors, including an increase in absolute swimming speed and mouth size as well as both…”
Nursery Areas as Essential Shark Habitats: A Theoretical Perspective (2007, background): “Shallow coastal waters are widely believed to represent lower risk habitats because they limit access by large sharks, which are the primary predators of young sharks (e.g., Cliff et al. 1989; Cliff and Dudley 1991; Cliff 1995; Ebert 2002; Heithaus 2004).”
Reproduction, abundance and feeding habits of the broadnose sevengill shark Notorynchus cepedianus in north Patagonia, Argentina (2005, background): “The diet of Notorynchus cepedianus in Anegada Bay changes ontogenetically as reported earlier (Ebert 2002).”
Decadal trends in shark catches and effort from the New South Wales, Australia, Shark Meshing Program 1950–2010 (2011, background): “Sevengill sharks are considered to be one of the most important apex predators in temperate coastal systems (Ebert 2002; Lucifora et al. 2005) and, given the diversity of their diet, may be taking advantage of a niche vacated by other species with reduced populations.”
