BIGGEST MANTA RAY SKIN

This species is largest stingray in the world with the heavy-body grows upwards of 2.1 m across and 350 kg in weight. It is mostly bottom-dwelling in nature and lives across a range of habitats from estuaries to reefs, but also often swims into open water. It inhabits the southern Africa, typically offshore at a depth of 180–480 m, and off southern Australia and New Zealand, from the intertidal zone to a depth of 156 m. The short-tail stingray ( Dasyatis brevicaudata) is a species of stingray in the family Dasyatidae. The threats for this slow-reproducing species is commercial fishing, both targeted and as bycatch, and habitat degradation across much of its range. Round ribbontail ray is an active predator of small, benthic molluscs, crustaceans, and bony fishes. It has a thick, rounded pectoral fin disc covered by small tubercles on top, and a relatively short tail bearing a deep ventral fin fold. It is a bottom-dwelling species that inhabits lagoons, estuaries, and reefs, generally at a depth of 20–60 m. The round ribbontail ray ( Taeniura meyeni) is a species of stingray that lives nearshore waters of the tropical Indo-Pacific, as well as off islands in the eastern Pacific. They may hunt both on the sea floor and well above it in open water. Deepwater Stingray preys on crustaceans, cephalopods, and bony fishes.

Its body color is dark above and white below, and its skin is almost full of tiny dermal denticles. This ray owns an oval pectoral fin disc with a long, flexible, broad-angled snout. It inhabits the Indo-Pacific, typically over fine sediments on the upper continental slope at depths of 275–680 m. This species can reach 2.7 m in length and 1.5 m in width.
