The great hammerhead catch rate in Indian Ocean has declined 73% from 1978 to 2003, though whether these represent localized or widespread depletions is uncertain. The great hammerhead is critically endangered along the western coast of Africa, where stocks have collapsed, with an estimated 80% decline in the past 25 years.
The scalloped hammerhead (Sphyrna lewini) is a species of hammerhead shark in the family Sphyrnidae. It was originally known as Zygaena lewini . The Greek word sphyrna translates into "hammer" in English, referring to the shape of this shark's head, which is its most distinguishing characteristic.
Sphyrna alleni is a small species of shark, measuring less than 150 centimetres (4.9 ft) in length. Like other hammerhead sharks , its head is shaped into a flattened cephalofoil. The latter has a more angular anterior edge than that of S. tiburo , and bears lobes on its posterior edges, leading to it being described as "shovel-like". [ 2 ]
