Etymology: Mustelus: Latin for weasel, an ancient name for sharks, possibly referring to the pointed snouts, swift movements and/or rapacious feeding behavior of smaller predatory sharks [strictly not tautonymous with Squalus mustelus Linnaeus 1758 since type was designated by the ICZN]. (See ETYFish); punctulatus: Diminutive of punctum (L.), spot, i.e., having tiny spots, referring to small black spots often present on body. (See ETYFish).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 115969): 15.3 - 21.6, mean 18.8 (based on 182 cells).

Fylogenetische diversiteitsindex (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00347 (0.00219 - 0.00549), b=3.16 (3.03 - 3.29), in cm Total Length, based on LWR estimates for this species & Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisch niveau (Ref. 69278): 3.8 ±0.4 se; based on diet studies.

Weerstandsvermogen (Ref. 120179): laag, minimale populatieverdubbelingstijd 4,5-14 jaar (tm=1.3-2.6(?); Fecundity is presumably low like other Mustelus species).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Moderate to high vulnerability (51 of 100).

Prijsklasse (Ref. 80766): Medium.

Mustelus punctulatus Risso, 1827
