Isurus
Isurus is a genus of mackerel sharks in the family Lamnidae, commonly known as the mako sharks. There are two living species, the common shortfin mako shark (Isurus oxyrinchus) and the rare longfin mako shark (Isurus paucus), and several extinct species known from fossils. They range in length from 9 to 15 feet, and have an approximate maximum weight of 1,750 lbs. The Lamnidae family also includes sharks such as the great white shark and porbeagle. The Mako shark is capable of swimming up to 40mph and jumping up to 24 ft. in the air.
Species
The genus contains two living species:
- Isurus oxyrinchus Rafinesque, 1810 (Shortfin mako)
- Isurus paucus Guitart-Manday, 1966 (Longfin mako)
Fossil species include I. hastalis, I. retroflexus, I. desori, I. escheri, and I. planus.[2][3]
