Summary: | Family Lamnidae Carcharodon carcharias (Linnaeus, 1758) —Tubarão-branco, Great white shark Lichtenstein 1844: 2 (as Squalus carcharias) Albuquerque 1954 –1956: 89 | Springer 1973a: 13 | Compagno 1984a: 238–242; 2001: 100 | Quéro 1984b: 84 | Sanches 1986: 56 | Lloris et al. 1991: 223 | Carneiro et al. 2014: 10. Distribution in Macaronesia. Madeira, Azores (Santos et al. 1997; Porteiro et al. 2010), Canary Islands (Brito et al. 2002; Brito Hernández & Sancho Rafel 2003) and Cape Verde (Reiner 1996, 2005). Remarks. although there are no specimens in MMF collection, the species is included in the present checklist since it was visually identified several times in Madeira EEZ, including by one of the authors (MB). The DSI reported a capture in 1982 of one specimen in a tuna longline at a depth of 168–200 m, SW of Porto Santo. Wirtz et al. (2008) did not include it in their checklist since it was not considered a coastal fish (recorded only from the open ocean). * Isurus oxyrinchus Rafinesque, 1810 — Marracho; Shortfin mako Günther 1870: 390 | Noronha & Sarmento 1934: 115 (as Lamna spallanzanii) Maul 1948: 138 | Nunes 1953: 158 | Noronha & Sarmento 1948: 111 (as Lamna oxyrinchus) Albuquerque 1954 –56: 87 (as Isurus oxyrhynchus sic) Fowler 1936: 33 | Springer 1973a: 14 | Cadenat & Blache 1981: 157–160 | Quéro 1984b: 85 | Sanches 1986: 57 | Wirtz et al. 2008: 2 | Carneiro et al. 2014: 11.
