Abstract
The first record of a west to east transatlantic migration of a tagged spiny dogfish (Squalus acanthias) is reported, 11 yr after liberation at St. Pierre Bank to recapture in the Shetland Isles–northern North Sea area. The most northward and eastward records of spiny dogfish in the northwest Atlantic are presented and discussed in relation to the probable frequency of transatlantic migration. It is concluded that transatlantic migration is not great but probably not highly unusual.
