Abstract
Sphyrna gilberti is a large hammerhead shark described off South Carolina and data distribution on other regions of the Western Atlantic are unknown. An adult male with a total length of 240 cm was collected in 2021 on Campeche, Southwestern Gulf of México. The precaudal vertebral count of the examined individual was 89, and a large head and a robust caudal peduncle were observed. This study documents the first record of S. gilberti in Mexican waters.
