User:PStagen28/Hawaiian lanternshark

The Hawaiian Lanternshark (Etmopterus villosus) is a species of small squaliform sharkin the family Etmopteridae. This type of Etmopteridae have a small but sturdy body. Research has found that females will reach to about 652 mm in length, while males will reach about 624 mm in length. The Hawaiian lantern shark has a muted color range consisting of browns and blacks on its upper half of its body. While the lower part are more consistent with a darker tonal range. A couple of noticeable characteristics for this organism is upon the area above the pelvic fin there is a black mark, there gills are about 6.25 mm long. Another couple of noticeable characteristics is the second dorsal fin. It is larger than the first frontal fin, but the length is almost half the size of the other. The other feature you may notice is that the spine has a slight curve to it instead of being straight. These organisms can be found in the Hawaiian islands arounds depths of 1.61 km. Some can be located more along the further of the Hawaiian island chain to the north. Researchers have found specimens near the Koko seamount and South Kanmu seamounts. Due to such depths that these creature live at, the interaction with human is sparse. The only rare occasion that we end up encountering such deep sea sharks is the use of deep sea nets. Ones that just barley impeach upon the sharks depth.

References "Peer review"

Aloha PJ, hereʻs my review so you have something to work on. You can use this to respond to for this weekʻs assignment.

- In general you have great information here, you just need to organize it into the requested sections: lead, description, distribution and habitat.

- great adding the references in the text and some links to other wikipedia pages. There just need to be more references (almost every sentence should have a source to make sure all your info and facts can be verified). Also, try to find some more reputable sources. I would serch for your scientific species name in Google scholar for example. Websites are ok, but preferably by organizations with a solid background (federal and state agencies such as NOAA, DAR, museums, aquaria, etc.), but personal blogs should be avoided.

- try to clean up your English. Remember that this is an encyclopedia and people around the world go here to get some solid info quickly and not read your opinion or some lengthy worded sentences for entertainment. So, try to be concise and precise and stick to the facts backed by sources.

-Good luck! Reach out if you have any questions.
