A common inshore and offshore shark found on the continental shelf on rough, even rocky or coral-like bottoms and on algae-covered bottoms. It feeds on bottom-dwelling invertebrates, such as molluscs and crustaceans, as well as demersal fish. Egg-laying.
A large, fairly stocky catshark with large and small black spots and sometimes white spots on the dorsal surface and saddle markings.
According to fishbase, the catshark is harmless. He can reach the age of 19 and grow up to 170cm tall.
Fresh and dried, salted, used for human consumption and processed into fish meal.
Note: Records further south in the Atlantic, as far south as the Gulf of Guinea and the mouth of the Congo, may be misidentifications of Scyliorhinus cervigoni.
