Molecular phylogenetics of myliobatiform fishes (Chondrichthyes: Myliobatiformes), with comments on the effects of missing data on parsimony and likelihood

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2003
Mitochondrial DNA sequences from the 12S rRNA gene, four tRNA genes, and a portion of two protein coding genes were used to investigate the relationship of myliobatoid genera. In addition, we conducted an investigation of the sister group to the freshwater stingrays by sampling additional DNA sequences from GenBank. Consequently, two datasets were used

Systematic implications of brain morphology in potamotrygonidae (Chondrichthyes: Myliobatiformes)

Journal of Morphology, 2015
ABSTRACTThe gross brain morphology, brain proportions, and position of cranial nerves in all four genera (Potamotrygon, Plesiotrygon, Paratrygon, and Heliotrygon) and 11 of the species of the Neotropical stingray family Potamotrygonidae were studied to provide new characters that may have a bearing on internal potamotrygonid systematics.

Three new stingrays (Myliobatiformes: Dasyatidae) from the Indo–West Pacific

Zootaxa, 2016
Three undescribed stingrays were discovered as part of a broader revision of the family Dasyatidae that formed part of the Chondrichthyan Tree of Life project. This research forms part of a sequence of papers on rays aimed at describing unnamed species for inclusion in a multi-authored guide to rays of the world.

Resurrection of the family Aetobatidae (Myliobatiformes) for the pelagic eagle rays, genus Aetobatus

Zootaxa, 2016
Molecular and morphological data show that the pelagic eagle rays of the genus Aetobatus form a distinct family-level grouping separate from the true eagle rays, Aetomylaeus and Myliobatis (family Myliobatidae). The family Aetobatidae is herein resurrected to include the pelagic eagle rays and definitions are provided for this family and for the ...

Ecological singularity of temperate mesopredatory myliobatoid rays (Chondrichthyes: Myliobatiformes)

Marine and Freshwater Research, 2016
Many myliobatoid rays are important mesopredators, having significant effects on coastal benthic communities. In tropical and subtropical high-diversity oligotrophic ecosystems, they partition their trophic resources, which results in high ecological singularity.

Complete mitogenome of the pale-edged stingrayDasyatis zugei(Myliobatiformes: Dasyatidae)

Mitochondrial DNA, 2012
The complete mitogenome of the pale-edged stingray (Dasyatis zugei) was first confirmed in this study. The mitogenome is 18,264 bp in length and contains 13 protein-coding genes, 2 rRNAs, 22 tRNAs and 1 control region, with the typical gene order in vertebrates.
