Distribution modelling for Neotropical freshwater stingrays Potamotrygon brachyura and Potamotrygon motoro (Myliobatiformes, Potamotrygonidae) in the Uruguay River basin. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract This study aimed to identify geographical distribution patterns of the giant short‐tailed river stingray Potamotrygon brachyura and the motoro stingray Potamotrygon motoro in the Uruguay River basin. Data on presence/absence of stingrays were based on fishers' knowledge accessed by interviews through expeditions in Brazil, Argentina and ...

Ecomorphology of the rectal gland of three batoids (Elasmobranchii: Myliobatiformes)

Zoologischer Anzeiger, 2021
Abstract The rectal gland (RG) is a specialized organ that performs a major role in salt excretion of marine elasmobranch species. We aimed to describe the rectal gland ecomorphology in three stingray species (Hypanus marianae, Hypanus guttatus, and Aetobatus narinari) from benthic and pelagic habitats.

Species boundaries in the Himantura uarnak species complex (Myliobatiformes: Dasyatidae) [PDF]

Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2013
Samples of the 'Himantura uarnak' species complex (H. leoparda, H. uarnak, H. undulata under their current definitions), mostly from the Coral Triangle, were analyzed using nuclear markers and mitochondrial DNA sequences. Genotypes at five intron loci showed four reproductively isolated clusters of individuals.

Linking rivers, mixing faunas: How artificial connectivity between the Middle and Upper Paraná River basins shapes fish diversity in a tributary of the Itaipu Reservoir, Brazil. [PDF]

J Fish Biol
Abstract This work aimed to investigate the distribution and occurrence of fish species along the São Francisco Falso Braço Norte (SFFBN) River basin, a tributary of the Middle Paraná River basin now artificially connected to the Upper Paraná ecoregion, to evaluate how such connectivity may affect the biogeographic distribution and regional composition

Reappraisal of the Eocene whiptail stingrays (Myliobatiformes, Dasyatidae) of the Bolca Lagerstätte, Italy [PDF]

Zoologica Scripta, 2018
AbstractThe Eocene whiptail stingrays of the family Dasyatidae from the Bolca Lagerstätte, NE Italy, are revised herein in detail. The analysis of the anatomical and morphometric features allows us to identify the species “Dasyatis” zigni (Molin, 1861) as a junior synonym of “D.” muricatus (Volta, 1796), and to assign it to the new genus Tethytrygon ...

Comparative anatomy of the extraocular muscles in four Myliobatoidei rays (Batoidea, Myliobatiformes) [PDF]

Journal of Anatomy, 2016
AbstractExtraocular muscles are classically grouped as four rectus and two oblique muscles. However, their description and potential associations with species behavior are limited. The objective was to characterize extraocular muscles in four Myliobatoidei rays from diverse habitats with divergent behaviors.
