Short Description
Original diagnose after WHITE, FURUMITSU & YAMAGUCHI, 2013 [20089]: A medium to large-sized Aetobatus (attaining 1500 mm DW) with the following combination of characters: dorsal surfaces uniformly greenish grey to brownish, without pale spots or ocelli; head long (ventral head length 27.4–31.9% DW); rostral lobe long to very long (longest in adult males) and narrow, tapering evenly to tip; teeth plates in a single row, those in lower jaw chevron-shaped; width of lower tooth plate about 2.4 times its width and in about 18 series; pectoral-fin radials 100–104 (excluding propterygial radials anterior of eyes); total vertebral centra (including synarcual) 88–90; pelvic-fin radials 1 (with 2–5 fused elements) +17–18; males mature by about 800 mm DW; born at 334–352 mm DW.
