Abstract

Silky sharks are large bodied highly migratory, coastal-pelagic and oceanic requiem sharks which occur circumglobally in a depth range of 18- 500m. They are known to be associated with islands, near insular slopes and over deepwater reefs preferring a water temperature of 230C. Silky sharks form a good fishery along southwest coast of India and mostly appear as bycatch in tuna fisheries.
