remarks: Ref.: HOWE, J.C. & SPRINGER, V.G. (1993) Catalog of type specimens of recent fishes in the National Museum of Natural History, Smithsonian Institution, 5: Sharks (Chondrichthyes: Selachii). Smithsonian Contributions to Zoology, (540): i-iii, 1-19: "Springer (1966) specified only a holotype in his description of G. cadenati; however, in table 1, he provides vertebral counts on 13 specimens, and in table 6, he provides measurements on 10 specimens. Furthermore, his illustration of the species (fig. 20b) is based on a 300 mm female specimen that is not the holotype (Springer, 1966:610, first sentence under "Description of the holotype."). Because S. Springer did not exclude these specimens from his type series, we treat them as paratypes. The total number of specimens in S. Springer's type series must have been at least 13, based on the number in table 1. We have been able to locate only 9 of these specimens (holotype and 8 paratypes)."
