Pelagic stingray
The pelagic stingray is a ray that lives in the open ocean rather than on the sea floor, which sets it apart from almost all other stingrays. It is found in warm waters around much of the world. It can give a severe sting with its tail spine, so it matters most to people who work on fishing boats.1

Indlela yokusiqaphela
- The pectoral fin disc is a thick, wedge-shaped wing that is about one-third wider than it is long.1
- It is a plain dark purple to blue-green above, with a slightly lighter shade below.1
- The tail is whip-like, up to twice as long as the disc, with an extremely long, serrated spine about a third to halfway along it.1
- Young rays are smooth-skinned, and small prickles and thorns appear with age.1
Amandla etyhefu yokuluma nokuhlaba
Ityhefu iphuma ngenaliti yokuhlaba.
Ityhefu yaso yokuluma okanye yokuhlaba yenza ntoni?
The venom is on the tail spine and is quite potent, which is why other fishes avoid it.1
Siyingozi kangakanani ebantwini?
Ingozi ebantwini: Kubi kakhuluUkuhlatywa kufuna ugqirha. Ukufa kunqabe kakhulu.It is rarely encountered except by fishery workers. Its tail spine can inflict a severe wound that can be fatal.1
Senza ntoni xa soyika?
When captured and handled, it releases a thick black mucus that covers its body, and its tail spine delivers venom.1
Ukuba siyahlaba
- Faka inxeba emanzini ashushu, ashushu kangangoko umntu angakwazi ukunyamezela ngaphandle kokutshiswa (wavavanye ngesandla sakho), imizuzu engama-30 ukuya kwengama-90. Fumana uncedo lwezonyango, ingakumbi kwii-stonefish nakwii-stingray.
Soloko utsalela inombolo kaxakeka kuqala (112, 000, 911). Esi sisikhokelo soncedo lokuqala ngokubanzi, asilocebiso lwezonyango. Iziseko zoncedo lokuqala
Hlala ukhuselekile
- Ungaze uchukumise, ubambe okanye uqhule isilwanyana sasendle, nokuba sincinci, kwaye nokuba sibonakala silele okanye sifile.
- Sinike indawo. Ukuba udibana naso, hlala uzolile, buyela umva kancinci kwaye usiyeke sihambe ngendlela yaso.
- Ukuba siyakuhlaba: hlala uzolile, musa ukushukuma, tsalela inombolo kaxakeka (112, 000, 911) okanye uye esibhedlele ngokukhawuleza. Khumbula ukuba sasikhangeleka njani, ifoto iyanceda.
Asikuzingeli. Sisebenzisa ityhefu yaso ukubamba ukutya okanye ukuzikhusela, kwaye singakhetha ukuzimela. Okungakumbi malunga nokuhlala ukhuselekile

Iinyaniso
It is the only stingray that almost exclusively lives in the open ocean rather than on the sea floor.1
Instead of rippling the edges of its disc like other stingrays, it swims by flapping its pectoral fins, similar to eagle rays.1
Both sexes have pointed teeth, which is unusual among stingrays. Only the teeth of adult males are longer and sharper.1
Females can store sperm inside their bodies for more than a year, waiting for good conditions before their young develop.1
A captive female reached 94 cm across and 49 kg, the largest individual on record from a rearing experiment.1
Oceanic whitetip sharks, great white sharks and toothed whales prey on it.1
