Current literature considers that Nasolamia velox, (N. velox) has a limited distribution along the coastline of the Eastern Pacific with sporadic sightings in Galapagos and Guadalupe islands. This study provides evidence of the occurrence of this species at the Revillagigedo Archipelago (18º 99’ 186” N 112º 08’ 44” W), Mexico, using acoustic telemetry and videos taken from 2014 to 2016. This report extends the known distribution of N. velox to 400 km off the mainland coast of the Americas, thereby increasing knowledge of the distribution of one of the most exploited shark species in the Eastern Tropical Pacific and supports the need for more accurate and effective management strategies.
