Pelagic Thresher
Alopias pelagicus Nakamura, 1935: 2 , 3, pl. 1, fig. 2. Syntypes: whereabouts unknown. Type locality: Su-Ao fish market, Taiwan.
Local synonymy: White et al., 2018: 84, figs (PNG).
PNG voucher material: None.
Remarks: Caught as bycatch in the pelagic longline fisheries in PNG; verified by photographs, with accompanying muscle and vertebral samples, from fisheries observers. Records of Alopias vulpinus ( Bonnaterre, 1788) from PNG waters are most likely misidentifications of this species.
