Table 2. Mean values (± SD) of the eight body length measurements that, according to the SIMPER analysis, contribute to the most intraspecific variability for each shark group. Nomenclature and abbreviations were defined according to Veríssimo et al. (2014): FL, fork length; PD 2, pre-second dorsal fin length; PP2, pre-pelvic fin length ; PD1, pre-first dorsal fin length; IDS, inter-dorsal space, defined as ‘ Distance from first dorsal fin insertion to second dorsal fin insertion’; HDL, head length; PG 1, pre-branchial length; CDM, dorsal caudal fin margin; P 1 I, pectoral fin inner margin. Further details on the measurements in the main text and Figure S 1.
