The finetooth shark, Carcharhinus isodon, is a small, discontinuously distributed coastal species found in waters of the western Atlantic Ocean from North Carolina in the US through the Gulf of Mexico and in southern Brazil. The species is a component of both commercial and recreational fisheries throughout its range. Here, we report polymerase-chain-reaction primers for 20 polymorphic and 33 monomorphic microsatellites isolated from an enriched genomic library of C. isodon DNA, and cross amplification of nine polymorphic and 35 monomorphic microsatellites previously characterized in blacknose shark, C. acronotus. All 97 microsatellites were characterized in 31 individuals. The microsatellites will be useful in population studies of finetooth sharks.
