Systematic implications of brain morphology in potamotrygonidae (Chondrichthyes: Myliobatiformes)
Journal of Morphology, 2015ABSTRACTThe 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, 2016Three 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.

Gastric lavage as a non-lethal method for stingray (Myliobatiformes) diet sampling
African Journal of Marine Science, 2015Understanding the trophic interactions of ecologically important mesopredators such as Myliobatiformes (stingrays) is vital, but, given their susceptibility to overexploitation, the collection of stomach contents for dietary analysis necessitates the use of non-lethal methods.

Resurrection of the family Aetobatidae (Myliobatiformes) for the pelagic eagle rays, genus Aetobatus
Zootaxa, 2016Molecular 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, 2016Many 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.

Mitochondrial DNA Part A, 2014
The pelagic stingray Pteroplatytrygon violacea is the only pelagic species of the Dasyatidae (Chondrichthyes: Elasmobranchii), which is widely distributed in all tropical, subtropical and temperate oceans. In this study, the complete mitochondrial genome of Pteroplatytrygon violacea was determined.
