Abstract

The zebra shark (Stegostoma tigrinum), or previously known as Stegostoma fasciatum, is an oviparous shark that usually inhabit in inshore and shallow coastal areas throughout the Indo West Pacific region, from South Africa to Solomon Islands. This species is found mostly on sandy substrates, around coral and rocky reefs, to at least 65 m depth. In 2019, the IUCN changed the vulnerable status of this species to be endangered due to the global population declined by 50% within the last 51 years. In contrast, the zebra shark was not classified as a threatened species in any regulations and conventions related to conservation acts both nationally and regionally. In Indonesia, this species has been caught and utilized for its fins, meat, skin, and cartilages for a long time and is often being traded as a live shark for aquaria. The ongoing exploitation of this species in this country has indicated local extinction in several locations. This paper reviews the taxonomy, biology, utilization, population, and threats on S. tigrinum in Indonesia as basic knowledge for better management of this species in the future.
