. . . . "IUCN3.1" . "The smooth hammerhead (Sphyrna zygaena) is a species of hammerhead shark, and part of the family Sphyrnidae. This species is named \"smooth hammerhead\" because of the distinctive shape of the head, which is flattened and laterally extended into a hammer shape (called the \"cephalofoil\"), without an indentation in the middle of the front margin (hence \"smooth\"). Unlike other hammerheads, this species prefers temperate waters and occurs worldwide at medium latitudes."@en . . . "(* ambiguous synonym)" . . "Smooth hammerhead"@en .
