Ginger carpetshark

The ginger carpetshark (Parascyllium sparsimaculatum) is a species of carpetshark of the family Parascylliidae endemic to the waters of western Australia.

It is a small fish at only 78.1 cm (2.56 ft) TL in length in females and harmless to humans.

Its depth range is 204–245 m (669–804 ft)[2] on the upper continental shelf.

It is known from only three specimens, so biological and population data are lacking.

[1] Reproduction is oviparous and embryos feed solely on yolk.
