Parascylliidae (Collared carpet sharks)
Etymology: Parascyllium: para (Gr.), near, i.e., presumed to be related to Scyliorhinus (now in Scyliorhinidae): skylion, Greek for dogfish or small shark (See ETYFish); sparsimaculatum: sparsus (L.), sparse or few; maculatum (L.), spotted, referring to relatively larger (and hence fewer) spots than congeners (See ETYFish).

Wervels: 45 - 46. Body yellowish-brown with relatively few, large, diffuse-edged, rusty-brown spots; collar-like saddle over gill region extremely faint. Head relatively large (length greater than 16% TL). Eyes large (horizontal diameter >11% HL). Pectoral fin large, anterior margin at least 10% TL. Dorsal fins relatively tall, erect with angular apices. Upper jaw with 43-49 teeth rows. Differs from P. ferrugineum and the more heavily spotted "P. multimaculatum" morph by having a larger eye (versus <11% HL); slightly more than tooth rows (versus 38-41); fewer and much paler spots on the body ; and more erect and angular dorsal fins (Ref. 41629).
Body shape (shape guide): elongated; Cross section: circular.
Species is likely to occur deeper, 245-435. Oviparous (Ref. 50449).
