Cephalurus cephalus (Gilbert, 1892). Lollipop Cat Shark . To 36.7 cm (14.4 in) TL (Jaime-Rivera et al. 2019). San Carlos, southern Baja California, to south of Mazatlan, including the southern Gulf of California and Islas Revillagigedo (Pollom et al. 2020e), and possibly southward to Panama (Compagno 1984), Peru (Ebert et al. 2013), and Chile (Balart et al. 2000). Depth: 155–927 m (508–3,041 ft) (Compagno 1984).
