The chain catshark or chain dogfish (''Scyliorhinus retifer'') is a small, reticulated shark that has a characteristic biofluorescent activity. The species is common from George’s Bank in Massachusetts, to Nicaragua.〔Bernadsky, Gilad and Goulet, Denis. (1991). Distribution and Habitat of Chain Dogfish, Scyliorhinus retifer, in the Mid-Atlantic Bight. Copea 1: 231-234.〕 The species is considered harmless and is rarely encountered by humans.〔(MarineBio.org - Marine Biology, Ocean Life Conservation, Sea creatures, Biodiversity, Oceans research )〕 It has very similar reproductive traits to ''Scyliorhinus canicula''.〔Castro, Jose I., Bubucis, Patricia M., and Overstrom, Neal A. (1988). The Reproductive Biology of the Chain Dogfish, Scyliorhinus retifer. Copea 3: 740-746.〕 ==Fluorescence== Mikhail Matz, a professor of marine biology at the University of Florida, was the first to document the shark's previously unknown biofluorescent properties.〔(NOAA Ocean Explorer )〕 A specimen that proved to be a chain catshark was filmed by Matz off the Gulf of Mexico in August 2005, a few days before Hurricane Katrina passed through the area. The purpose of the shark’s fluorescence is still unclear.
