Serendipitous re-sighting of a basking shark Cerorhinus maximus reveals inter-annual connectivity between American and European coastal hotspots

A female basking shark Cetorhinus maximus was tagged with a satellite transmitter at Malin Head, Ireland and re-sighted 993 days later at Cape Cod, USA, a distance of 4632km.Transatlantic stock mixing in basking sharks is supported by low genetic diversity in populations throughout the Atlantic Ocea...
