wakiyae, Squalus Tanaka [S.] 1918:475, Pl. 130 (figs. 368-370) [Figures and descriptions of the fishes of Japan v. 27; ref. 14911] Watanoha, Ishinomaki, Miyagi Prefecture, Japan, depth 225 meters. Syntypes: (3) ZUMT 4684 (1), 4685 (1), 7632 (1, lost). Type catalog: Aizawa et al. 2022:200 [ref. 39648]. The spelling wakiyae is acceptable; early workers almost certainly Latinized the name first, and then added an 'e' (Art. 31.1.1) [WNE, 12 Mar. 2012] -- we suggest using wakiyae when the species is treated as valid. •Synonym of Squalus acanthias Linnaeus 1758 -- (Compagno 1984:111 [ref. 6474], Lloris & Rucabado 1991:27 [ref. 22530], White et al. 2007:113 [ref. 29134]). Current status: Synonym of Squalus acanthias Linnaeus 1758. Squalidae. Habitat: marine.
