| Abstract: | Between 1996 and 2002, 194 specimens of thresher shark, Alopias vulpinus, were sampled from the Algerian coast. Males (102 specimens) did not significantly outnumber females (92 specimens). The collected specimens ranged between 49 and 249 cm in standard length and weighed between 14 and 150 kg. Since 2002, captures of A. vulpinus have remained relatively rare throughout the Algerian coast and this phenomenon could indicate a decline of the species’ occurrence in this area and probably in the entire Mediterranean. |
