| The '''oceanic whitetip shark''', ''Carcharhinus longimanus'', is a large [[pelagic zone|pelagic]] [[shark]] of tropical and warm temperate seas. It is a stocky shark, most notable for its long, white tipped rounded fins. | |
| | |
| This aggressive but slow-moving fish dominates feeding frenzies, and has attacked more humans than all other shark species combined — it is a notable danger to survivors of oceanic ship wrecks and downed aircraft. Recent studies have shown that its numbers are in steep decline — its large fins are highly valued as the chief ingredient of [[shark-fin soup]] and, as with other shark species, the oceanic whitetip faces mounting pressure from [[fishery|fishing]] throughout its range.

| The oceanic whitetip shark was first described by naturalist [[Rene Primevere Lesson]] in his account of observations made during [[Louis Isidore Duperrey|Louis Duperrey]]'s 1822–1825 circumnavigation of the world on the corvette ''[[Coquille]]''. Lesson described two specimens found in the [[Tuamotu Archipelago]] in [[French Polynesia]], and [[binomial nomenclature|named]] the shark ''Squalus maou'' after a Polynesian word for "shark". However, Lesson's description and name were forgotten.
