	Carcharhiniformes - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		With over 270 species, carcharhiniforms include a number of common types, such as the blue shark and sandbar shark.
		Members of the orders are characterized by the presence of a nictitating membrane over the eye, two dorsal fins, an anal fin, and five gill slits.
		The families of the carcharhiniforms are expected to be revised; recent DNA studies show that some of the traditional groups are not monophyletic.

	Carcharhiniformes: Ground or Whaler Sharks
		The carcharhinoids are a large and highly successful group of generalists, including many of the most familiar, dangerous, and economically important sharks.
		Despite their remarkable range of sizes, habitats, and habits, the carcharhiniform sharks are structurally more uniform than most elasmobranch orders.
		The secret to the carcharhinoids' success seems to be that they are 'jacks of all trades', able to exploit a wide variety of prey and environments.

		Orectolobiformes: They are commonly referred to as the carpet sharks, including zebra sharks, nurse sharks, wobbegongs and the largest of all fishes, the whale shark.
