The zebra shark is the only species in its family. It is easily recognised by its patterned colour, long tail and longitudinal ridges along the body. Its range covers the warm waters of the southern Pacific. It prefers coastal shelves of continents and islands and is often seen on coral reefs at depths of 70–80 metres or less. This shark is large, reaching over three metres in length, though adults are usually 2 to 2.5 metres.
