Abstract
Occurrences of tiger shark, Galeocerdo cuvier (Péron et Lesueur, 1822) (Carcharhiniformes: Carcharhinidae) in Sagami Bay are reviewed. It is clear from several records that the species occasionally enters to the bay. However, the record based on a specimen which guarantees the identification and various biological informations is known to only an example in this report. It is necessary to construct a network among citizens, fishermenʼs cooperatives, fisheries experimental stations, aquariums, museums, etc. for collecting of occurrence records of large elasmobranchs.
