Abstract
⺠GLMs and GIS were used to map the habitats of five skates, four sharks and a stingray. ⺠Predictors used included depth, sediment type, bed stress, temperature and salinity. ⺠Habitat maps highlighted contrasting habitat utilisation across elasmobranch species. ⺠Two species showed ontogenetic differences in habitat utilisation. ⺠Spatial segregation by sex was found for one species.
