Squatina Duméril [A. M. C.] 1805:102, 342 [Zoologie analytique; ref. 1151] Fem. Squalus squatina Linnaeus 1758. Type by subsequent designation. Appeared without Latinized species. Subsequent addition al species not researched. Type generally regarded as S. squatina, implied by tautonymy. Apparently Duméril (as a vernacular name) and later authors applied the species name angelus, with S. angelus an unneeded substitute for S. squatina. Compagno 1984:138 [ref. 6474] indicates that the type is S. vulgaris Risso 1810 by subsequent monotypy. Also appeared as new (sensu Plinius) in Billberg 1833:52 [ref. 34146] as Sqvatina; see Kullander 2016:109 [ref. 34147].

Squatina Risso [A.] 1810:45 [Ichthyologie de Nice; ref. 3755] Fem. Squatina vulgaris Risso 1810 (= Squalus squatina Linnaeus 1758). Type by monotypy.
