Résumé

The Chain Dogfish, Scyliorhinus retifer, is known from southwestern Georges Bank in the United States but until now there have been no verifiable records of this shark in Canadian waters. We report on two specimens Georges Bank, Big LaHave Bank, Nova Scotia, that represent the first and second records for the Canadian Atlantic.
