Amandus Heinrich Christian Zietz
Amandus Heinrich Christian Zietz (13 June 1840 – 2 August 1921) was a zoologist and paleontologist born in Hamburg, Schleswig-Holstein, and best known for his work at the South Australian Museum in Adelaide, after arriving in South Australia in 1883. He and his son Frederick Robert Zietz, also a zoologist, worked on preserving bones from a diprotodon skeleton. Along with E. C. Stirling, also at the South Australian museum, he undertook the direction of the first major palaeontology excavation at Lake Callabonna, where a large series of ''Diprotodont'' skeletal material was collected. Zietz was responsible for identifying a hitherto unknown species of shark from Investigator Strait, which became known as ''Asymbolus vincenti'', or Gulf catshark. He is buried in West Terrace Cemetery The West Terrace Cemetery is South Australia's oldest cemetery, first appearing on Colonel William Light's 1837 plan of Adelaide.

Catshark
Catsharks are ground sharks of the family Scyliorhinidae. They are the largest family of sharks with around 160 species placed in 17 genera. Although they are generally known as catsharks, some species can also be called dogfish due to previous naming. However, a dogfish may generally be distinguished from a catshark as catsharks lay eggs while dogfish have live young. Like most bottom feeders, catsharks feed on benthic invertebrates and smaller fish. They are not harmful to humans. The family is paraphyletic, containing several distinct lineages that do not form a monophyletic group. Genera The family includes 17 genera and over 150 species, making it the largest family of sharks. * '' Akheilos'' White, Fahmi & Weigmann, 2019 * ''Apristurus'' Garman, 1913 * ''Asymbolus'' Whitley, 1939 * ''Atelomycterus'' Garman, 1913 * ''Aulohalaelurus'' Fowler, 1934 * ''Bythaelurus'' Compagno, 1988 * ''Cephaloscyllium'' T.
