Some of the catsharks have this heart shaped root base when viewed from below. Triakis tends to be more spread out but similar. Pachyscyllium is one of the catsharks that have this heart shaped root base. I've clipped some examples of Cappetta's book. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
