Abstract
This study constitutes the first record and a range extension of the roughskin spurdog (Cirrhigaleus asper) in the Caribbean Sea. A total of three mature female specimens were captured by artisanal fishermen between March and May of 2016 of Guatemala. The total length of the sharks ranged from 1,110-1,280 mm, which is the largest total length so far reported for this species.
