The use of pelvic fins for benthic locomotion during foraging behavior in Potamotrygon motoro (Chondrichthyes: Potamotrygonidae)

open access: yesZoologia (Curitiba), 2015
Synchronized bipedal movements of the pelvic fins provide propulsion (punting) during displacement on the substrate in batoids with benthic locomotion. In skates (Rajidae) this mechanism is mainly generated by the crural cartilages.

Diversification and convergence following the transition from saltwater to freshwater in stingrays. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2023
One of the most fundamental questions in biology is why some groups of organisms are more diverse than others. Classic hypotheses for explaining differences in diversity consider distinctions in time, place, resources, and competitors as the staging ...

TAXONOMIC REVISION OF RHINEBOTHROIDES (EUCESTODA: TETRAPHYLLIDEA: PHYLLOBOTHRIIDAE), PARASITES OF NEOTROPICAL FRESHWATER STINGRAYS (RAJIFORMES: MYLIOBATOIDEI: POTAMOTRYGONIDAE)

open access: yesJournal of Parasitology, 2003
Extensive new collections of specimens of Rhinebothroides spp. from a wide range of Neotropical freshwater potamotrygonid stingrays in numerous localities permitted critical evaluation of the validity of the 7 nominal species in the genus. Some qualitative characters previously used in the taxonomy of this group are highly variable within and among ...
