Description

The genus Dasyatis includes approximately 36 species around the world, and at least 8 species of which are distributed around Japan. In Ariake Bay, a total of 5 species of Dasyatis were identified based on our periodic studies to clarify the elasmobranch fauna since 2001. In addition, an undescribed species of Dasyatis was identified which is characterized by a unique combination of morphological characters. We also collected specimens of Dasyatis sp. from western coastal areas of Kyushu. In this paper, we propose a new Japanese name "Ariake-akaei" for Dasyatis sp. to avoid taxonomic confusion.
