# Esciliorrínids

Els esciliorrínids (Scyliorhinidae) són una família de taurons de l'ordre dels carcariniformes, una de les més nombroses, amb 15 gèneres i 89 espècies.

## Morfologia

* Són esquals petits i de cos allargassat: la majoria d'espècies fan entre 60 i 70 cm de longitud però la més grossa (Apristurus gibbosus) assoleix els 4 m. Tot i això la llargària màxima de les espècies Mediterrània|mediterrànies és sempre inferior a 1 m.
* Els ulls són grossos amb una petita membrana nictitant.
* Les aletes dorsals es troben per darrere de les pelvianes, són subiguals i estan situades molt enrere. L'origen de la primera dorsal és clarament posterior a l'origen de les ventrals.
* L'anal és grossa.
* La caudal no es troba ben desenvolupada, és sub-horitzontal i amb el lòbul inferior escarransit
* Els espiracles són ben visibles.
* Tenen cinc obertures branquials de les quals la cinquena, i de vegades també la quarta, estan situades sobre la base de les aletes pectorals.
* Les dents són pluricuspidades, amb la cúspide principal aguda, menudes i nombroses, molt poc diferents de les de les dues mandíbules.

## Ecologia

Es troben a tots els oceans de la Terra (llevat de l'oceà Antàrtic). Són molt abundants a les costes de Sud-àfrica, a l'àrea marina compresa entre Àsia i Austràlia, i a l'oceà Pacífic occidental.
Mengen invertebrats i peixets.
Totes les espècies són costaneres i sedentàries. Són bentònics.
