Looks pretty strong, as ever.

"John Stevens and Glen Cuthbert in 1983.[2] Its scientific description was authored by William White, Peter Last, and Leonard Compagno" Do we have articles about any of these people? We certainly do for Zootaxa.

Added some links.

"The large, oval eyes possess nictitating membranes and have a notched posterior rim" Plural eyes, but singular rims?

Fixed.

"octopuses such as Callistoctopus" Callistoctopus species?

Added "spp."

"such as that sharks over 90 cm (35 in) long eat almost nothing else" Do you need "as"?

Removed the "as".

"(see above)" WP:SELF?

Changed to "...habitat shift toward coral reefs".

"particularly for smaller sharks; other cephalopods, mud lobsters, crabs, and echinoderms are rarely consumed." This reads oddly; how about adding "in addition," before "other cephalopods"?

Divided into two sentences.

I'm assuming we don't know how long they live? Are those that are caught used for anything?

There's no longevity data. I looked for references about them being utilized but there wasn't any, so they may be discarded.

Useful link? Another? Another?

Links added.

A distribution category would be good.

Added one.

Very good, as ever. J Milburn (talk) 18:41, 8 December 2013 (UTC)[reply]
