Occurrence of great white shark, Carcharodon carcharias (Linnaeus, 1758) and basking shark, Cetorhinus maximus (Gunnerus, 1165) in the Eastern Adriatic and their protection.
Within 29 different species of sharks reported in the Adriatic, the great white shark and the basking shark are included as very rare species. These two species, like other sharks, have life history characteristics, such as slow growth, delayed ages at maturity, low fecundity and long gestation periods, that make them particularly vulnerable to overfishing. A number of studies, carried out throughout the world indicate that numbers of these two species decline. This paper gives collected data of records of these two species in the Eastern Adriatic, based on bibliographical research and collaboration with numerous persons and institutions. Since 19th century 61 records of the great white shark and 27 records of the basking shark have been collected in the Eastern Adriatic. According to obtained results a proposal of their protection in the same area has been presented.
