<span class="mw-page-title-main">Hammerhead shark</span> Family of sharks

The hammerhead sharks are a group of sharks that form the family Sphyrnidae, commonly referred to as ‘hammerheads’ for the unusual and distinctive form of their heads, which are flattened and laterally extended into a cephalofoil. The shark’s eyes are placed one on either end of this T-shaped structure, with their small mouths directly centered and underneath. Most hammerhead species are placed in the genus Sphyrna, while the winghead shark is placed in its own genus, Eusphyra. Many different— but not necessarily mutually exclusive—functions have been postulated for the cephalofoil, including sensory reception, manoeuvering, and prey manipulation. The cephalofoil gives the shark superior binocular vision and depth perception.
