Lamna nasus

(Bonnaterre, 1788)


Katrien Vandevelde For a joint press release on the imports and use of porbeagles (Lamna nasus) in restaurants in Belgium and The Netherlands, we are looking for a picture of a porbeagle in his natural habitat. Does anyone here have, or could anyone of you refer us to someons who would be willing to help us with this?
