Resumen:
Two individuals of the bluntnose sixgill shark (Hexanchus griseus) are reported. One male and one female were caught by bottom trawlers in patagonian waters; both specimens were immature. Four prey items were found in both stomachs along with several parasites. These are the second and third records of this species in argentine waters, and enlarge its distribution range in over a 1000km.
