Uses: no uses
Comments: Known from off Indonesia (Macassar and "East Indies"). Also recorded from Lombok and Papua (Ref. 95494). In Indonesia, tangle net fisheries target the large rays with the most valuable and principal target being the wedgefishes (Rhynchobatus spp.) for their fins (Ref. 114953).

Environment: milieu / climate zone / Tiefenbereich / distribution range Ökologie

seewasser demersal; tiefenbereich 0 - 60 m (Ref. 106604). Subtropical; 30°N - 30°S, 30°E - 155°E (Ref. 114953)

Verbreitung Länder | FAO Gebiete | Ecosystems | Vorkommen | Punkt Karte | Einführungen | Faunafri

Indo-West Pacific: Red Sea, Persian Gulf (Ref. 114953). Gulf of Thailand and the Philippines to Queensland, Australia. A similar and perhaps identical species occurs in the western Indian Ocean off Mozambique and in the Gulf of Aden and is probably sympatric with the true 'Rhynchobatus djiddensis' of the western Indian Ocean and the Red Sea. Distributional range probably wider than reported, but many nominal records of Rhynchobatus djiddensis from the western Pacific and southeastern Indian Ocean cannot be identified to species.

Length at first maturity / Size / Gewicht / Alter

Geschlechtsreife: Lm ?, range 155 - ? cm
Max length : 124 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 114953); 300.0 cm TL (female)

Biologie     Fachlexikon (Englisch) (z.B. epibenthic)

Inhabits inshore waters on the continental shelves (Ref. 9915). Demersal on soft bottoms and near coral reefs (Ref.58048). Female specimens may reach 300 cm in length in Thailand (Ref. 9915). Feeds on bottom crustaceans, mollusks (Ref. 9915) and bottom-dwelling fishes (Ref. 114953). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 50449). Caught commonly by demersal tangle net, and to a lesser extent by trawl and longline fisheries (Ref.58048). Marketed fresh; fins prized for the sharkfin trade (Ref. 9915).

Life cycle and mating behavior Geschlechtsreife | Fortpflanzung | Ablaichen | Eier | Fecundity | Larven

Exhibit ovoviparity (aplacental viviparity), with embryos feeding initially on yolk, then receiving additional nourishment from the mother by indirect absorption of uterine fluid enriched with mucus, fat or protein through specialised structures (Ref. 50449).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 23 - 28.4, mean 27.3 °C (based on 802 cells).
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5024   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00372 (0.00163 - 0.00845), b=3.11 (2.91 - 3.31), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref. 93245).
Trophic level (Ref. 69278):  3.5   ±0.50 se; based on food items.
