Squalidae v. Squalus edit
Roughskin spurdog Cirrhigaleus asper seems to suggest that Spurdogs are Squalidae rather than Squalus.--Rumping (talk) 12:20, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
- They are in the family Squalidae, there is no need to restate the genus (Cirrhigaleus) as it is part of the specific name Cirrhigaleus asper. It is not in the genus Squalus. GrahamBould (talk) 12:48, 23 January 2008 (UTC)
- That is my point. The Spurdog article in effect says that spurdogs are a single genus Squalus. The Roughskin spurdog is in a different genus, calling the statement in the article into question. --Rumping (talk) 10:57, 24 January 2008 (UTC)

Should note that species (Squalus only, not Cirrhigaleus) count has increased from 32 to 34. Full list can be found from academic source here: https://www.fishbase.in/identification/SpeciesList.php?genus=Squalus. — Preceding unsigned comment added by Icedburg824 (talk • contribs) 04:07, 16 May 2022 (UTC)
Genus edit
Is little gulper shark in the genus Centrophorus or Squalus? There seem to references to both in Google searches. GrahamBould (talk) 19:11, 24 January 2009 (UTC)
