Squalus bahiensis sp. nov. is distinct from all species of the S. megalops group by having pectoral fins with free rear tips rounded ( vs . free rear tips pointed), snout blunt and elongate ( vs . snout rounded and short), and dermal denticles tricuspid and rhomboid ( vs . dermal denticles unicuspid and lanceolate). Squalus bahiensis sp. nov. is distinct from S. mitsukurii by having a narrower interorbital space (8.2 %, 7.9 %– 8.3 % TL vs . 9.3 %, 9.1 %– 9.8 % TL in S. mitsukurii ), and shorter lower caudal fin lobe (preventral caudal margin 11.4 %, 10.9 %– 11.3 % TL vs . 12.1 %, 11.5 %– 12.4 % TL). Squalus bahiensis sp. nov. can be easily distinguished from S. blainvillei from the Mediterranean Sea by having lower dorsal fins (first dorsal-fin height 6.9 %, 7.0%– 7.1 % TL vs . 8.2 %, 7.3 %– 8.7 % TL in S. blainvillei second dorsal-fin height 5.3 %, 4.2 %– 4.4 % TL vs . 7.2 %, 6.6 %– 7.5 % TL in S. blainvillei ), and a shorter upper labial furrow (its length 2.3 %, 2.2 % TL vs . 2.5 %, 2.4 %– 2.7 % TL in S. blainvillei ). Squalus bahiensis sp. nov. is distinct from S . lobularis by: caudal fin somewhat slender vs . upper caudal lobe rectangular in S . lobularis second dorsal-fin spine not reaching dorsal-fin apex vs . reaching dorsal-fin apex in S . lobularis shorter pectoral-fin inner margin (its length 8.1 %, 8.4 %– 8.9 % TL vs . 10.5 %, 9.2 %–11.0% TL in S . lobularis ); and clasper outer length greater (5.0%, 4.6 %– 5.1 % TL vs . 4.3 % TL in S . lobularis ).

Squalus bahiensis is apparently endemic to the coast near Salvador, Bahia (Brazil). Etymology . The epithet is in reference to the state of Bahia, northeastern Brazil, from where this species is described. Remarks . Squalus mitsukurii and the Mediterranean species S. blainvillei (Risso, 1826) are often listed in the literature from the northern Brazilian coast to southern Argentina (e.g. Miranda Ribeiro, 1907; Compagno, 1984; Calderón, 1994; Compagno et al ., 2005; Fischer et al ., 2006; Viana, 2011). These two species were probably misidentified in these regions for sharing characters of species of the S. mitsukurii group, such as an elongate snout, tricuspidate dermal denticles, and low dorsal fins, which are also present in both S . bahiensis and S. lobularis . Squalus bahiensis , however, can be easily distinguished from all species of this group by the absence of a black caudal blotch in the caudal fin. Squalus bahiensis further differs from S. lobularis (its most similar congener) by a shorter first dorsal-fin anterior margin (its length in S . bahiensis 10.5 %, 10.3 %– 10.6 % TL vs . 11.1 %, 10.3 %– 11.9 % TL in S. lobularis ), and greater interdorsal space (26.5 %, 24.4 %– 26.8 % TL vs . 24.6 %, 21.9 %– 24.1 % TL, respectively). Squalus bahiensis can also be distinguished from the Japanese S. mitsukurii by a more elongate precaudal length (79.5 %, 79.2 %– 81.2 % TL vs . 77.5 %, 76.9 %– 78.6 % TL in S. mitsukurii ), pre-second dorsal fin length (61.5 %, 61.0%– 63.8 % TL vs . 61.0%, 58.4 %– 60.5 % TL in S. mitsukurii ), and first gill slit closer to snout tip in S . bahiensis than in S. mitsukurii (prebranchial length 17.9 %, 18.4 %– 18.8 % TL vs . 20.4 %, 19.9 %–20.0% TL in S. mitsukurii ). Squalus bahiensis has a body depth almost equal from the head to abdomen (head height 0.9, 1.1 – 1.1 times trunk height, and 0.9, 1.0–1.0 times abdomen height) while S. mitsukurii has its greatest depth in the head (head height 1.2, 1.0– 1.4 times trunk height and 1.6, 1.2–1.7 times abdomen height). It is also easily distinct from S. montalbani by having a more slender and deep body (vs. markedly robust body in S. montalbani ), and a shorter ventral caudal lobe (its length 11.4 %, 10.9 %– 11.3 % TL vs . 11.5 %– 13.2 % TL in S. montalbani ).

Squalus bahiensis sp. nov. is distinct from all species of the S. megalops group by having pectoral fins with free rear tips rounded ( vs . free rear tips pointed), snout blunt and elongate ( vs . snout rounded and short), and dermal denticles tricuspid and rhomboid ( vs . dermal denticles unicuspid and lanceolate). Squalus bahiensis sp. nov. is distinct from S. mitsukurii by having a narrower interorbital space (8.2 %, 7.9 %– 8.3 % TL vs . 9.3 %, 9.1 %– 9.8 % TL in S. mitsukurii ), and shorter lower caudal fin lobe (preventral caudal margin 11.4 %, 10.9 %– 11.3 % TL vs . 12.1 %, 11.5 %– 12.4 % TL). Squalus bahiensis sp. nov. can be easily distinguished from S. blainvillei from the Mediterranean Sea by having lower dorsal fins (first dorsal-fin height 6.9 %, 7.0%– 7.1 % TL vs . 8.2 %, 7.3 %– 8.7 % TL in S. blainvillei second dorsal-fin height 5.3 %, 4.2 %– 4.4 % TL vs . 7.2 %, 6.6 %– 7.5 % TL in S. blainvillei ), and a shorter upper labial furrow (its length 2.3 %, 2.2 % TL vs . 2.5 %, 2.4 %– 2.7 % TL in S. blainvillei ). Squalus bahiensis sp. nov. is distinct from S . lobularis by: caudal fin somewhat slender vs . upper caudal lobe rectangular in S . lobularis second dorsal-fin spine not reaching dorsal-fin apex vs . reaching dorsal-fin apex in S . lobularis shorter pectoral-fin inner margin (its length 8.1 %, 8.4 %– 8.9 % TL vs . 10.5 %, 9.2 %–11.0% TL in S . lobularis ); and clasper outer length greater (5.0%, 4.6 %– 5.1 % TL vs . 4.3 % TL in S . lobularis ).

Squalus bahiensis is apparently endemic to the coast near Salvador, Bahia (Brazil). Etymology . The epithet is in reference to the state of Bahia, northeastern Brazil, from where this species is described. Remarks . Squalus mitsukurii and the Mediterranean species S. blainvillei (Risso, 1826) are often listed in the literature from the northern Brazilian coast to southern Argentina (e.g. Miranda Ribeiro, 1907; Compagno, 1984; Calderón, 1994; Compagno et al ., 2005; Fischer et al ., 2006; Viana, 2011). These two species were probably misidentified in these regions for sharing characters of species of the S. mitsukurii group, such as an elongate snout, tricuspidate dermal denticles, and low dorsal fins, which are also present in both S . bahiensis and S. lobularis . Squalus bahiensis , however, can be easily distinguished from all species of this group by the absence of a black caudal blotch in the caudal fin. Squalus bahiensis further differs from S. lobularis (its most similar congener) by a shorter first dorsal-fin anterior margin (its length in S . bahiensis 10.5 %, 10.3 %– 10.6 % TL vs . 11.1 %, 10.3 %– 11.9 % TL in S. lobularis ), and greater interdorsal space (26.5 %, 24.4 %– 26.8 % TL vs . 24.6 %, 21.9 %– 24.1 % TL, respectively). Squalus bahiensis can also be distinguished from the Japanese S. mitsukurii by a more elongate precaudal length (79.5 %, 79.2 %– 81.2 % TL vs . 77.5 %, 76.9 %– 78.6 % TL in S. mitsukurii ), pre-second dorsal fin length (61.5 %, 61.0%– 63.8 % TL vs . 61.0%, 58.4 %– 60.5 % TL in S. mitsukurii ), and first gill slit closer to snout tip in S . bahiensis than in S. mitsukurii (prebranchial length 17.9 %, 18.4 %– 18.8 % TL vs . 20.4 %, 19.9 %–20.0% TL in S. mitsukurii ). Squalus bahiensis has a body depth almost equal from the head to abdomen (head height 0.9, 1.1 – 1.1 times trunk height, and 0.9, 1.0–1.0 times abdomen height) while S. mitsukurii has its greatest depth in the head (head height 1.2, 1.0– 1.4 times trunk height and 1.6, 1.2–1.7 times abdomen height). It is also easily distinct from S. montalbani by having a more slender and deep body (vs. markedly robust body in S. montalbani ), and a shorter ventral caudal lobe (its length 11.4 %, 10.9 %– 11.3 % TL vs . 11.5 %– 13.2 % TL in S. montalbani ).
