However, in the North Spanish waters, only Deania calcea and Deania profundorum have been caught. Taxonomy Deania species have two dorsal fins with strong grooved spines, no anal fin, and a strong sub terminal notch on the caudal fin. Typically, identification characteristics such as dermal denticles and teeth have been utilized to distinguish between elasmobranch species.Rodríguez-Cabello, C., Pérez, M., & Grasa, I. (2020, May).
