Scalloped Hammerhead Shark

Sphyrna lewini
About the species

Famous for the mesmerising schools that gather at offshore seamounts like Daedalus and the Brothers, this shark sports a scallop-edged hammer head studded with sensory pores. Usually skittish around scuba bubbles, large aggregations of females patrol the current-swept reef in the cooler hours.
