The occurrence of the shark Indonesian Wobbegong Orectolobus leptolineatus in the Philippines is also confirmed. The recent information on the Indonesian Coelacanth (Latimeria menadoensis) and other fish species are also presented. The presence of an angled-rough shark, which is tentatively identified herein as Oxynotus cf japonicus, is also reported for the first time to occur in North Sulawesi waters, Indonesia.
