  abstract = {{T}he silvertip shark, {C}archarhinus albimarginatus, is a coral reef-associated shark with a wide distribution across the {I}ndo-{P}acific. {Y}et, unlike common reef shark species, limited knowledge exists on its movement patterns. {H}ere, we tracked 28 individuals for 4 years with acoustic telemetry in {N}ew {C}aledonia to estimate home range sizes and to investigate individual and seasonal patterns of space use. {C}omparisons were made with grey reef sharks, {C}. amblyrhynchos, a closely related but more documented species, tagged on the same acoustic network during the same period. {W}e report similar home range ({HR}) for both species, with adult males displaying greater {HR} than females and juveniles. {A}n increased mobility of adult males was observed during the austral summer for the silvertip shark, and the austral winter for the grey reef shark, corresponding to putative mating seasons. {O}ur study brings new insight on the ecology of the silvertip shark and provides essential material to inform targeted conservation measures.},
