Pharmacokinetic study of voriconazole administered orally at 50 mg/kg in nursehound sharks (Scyliorhinus stellaris) and udulate skates (Raja undulata) [PDF]
BMC Veterinary ResearchBackground Fungal diseases represent an ongoing problem for elasmobranchs kept under human care worldwide. When present, mycoses often lead to high mortality rates, compromising welfare and conservation programs in aquariums.

Spatial segregation in eastern North Pacific skate assemblages. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2014 Skates (Rajiformes: Rajoidei) are common mesopredators in marine benthic communities. The spatial associations of individual species and the structure of assemblages are of considerable importance for effective monitoring and management of exploited ...

Drivers of the spatial behaviour of the threatened thornback skate (Raja clavata)
Aquatic Living Resources, 2023 Fish movements are fundamental to their ecology and survival. Understanding the causes and consequences of the spatial behaviour of fish is of high relevance as it provides critical knowledge for conservation purposes. Skate (Rajidae) populations face an
