Spesies Hiu Aneh Ditemukan Di Greenland

The Iceland catshark species, including this fish caught during the study period, is among several sharks recently found in Greenland waters for the first time.

The small shark has been found in other oceans at depths of between 2,645 to 4,625 feet (800 and 1,410 meters), where it feeds on fish, marine worms, and crustaceans such as lobster and crabs.

The recent discoveries of deep-dwelling species, such as the catshark, are probably due largely to an increase in deep-sea fishing around Greenland—and a resulting boom in odd, accidental catches—the survey team says.

Five of the 38 new-to-Greenland fish species are relatively shallow dwellers, though, and were likely lured into their new habitats by warming seas, the team says.

Spesies catshark Islandia, termasuk ikan ini tertangkap selama masa studi, adalah beberapa di antara hiu baru-baru ini ditemukan di perairan Greenland untuk pertama kalinya.

Hiu kecil telah ditemukan di lautan lainnya di kedalaman antara 2.645 sampai 4.625 kaki (800 dan 1.410 meter), di mana ia makan pada ikan, cacing laut, dan krustasea seperti lobster dan kepiting.

Penemuan spesies terbaru dalam tinggal, seperti catshark tersebut, mungkin terutama disebabkan oleh peningkatan memancing di laut sekitar Greenland-dan mengakibatkan ledakan aneh, kebetulan menangkap-tim survei mengatakan.

Lima dari 38 baru-untuk-Greenland spesies ikan penduduk relatif dangkal, meskipun, dan mungkin tergoda ke habitat baru mereka dengan laut pemanasan, tim mengatakan.
