P. Castaxi & P. Otorongo

[marshy]

Are they the same ray?
Or perhaps one is a variant of the other?

Should be different, they look very different when young and middle age...

hehehe... surprised to see you here too!
Noticed some websites naming examples as

P. Castaxi "Otorongo"
P. Castaxi "Tigrillo"

 

[rvrrays]

They are different morphs of the same species.

Potamotrygon castexi often go by....motello, tigrillo, otorongo, etc.

They are all very hardy rays that get quite large.
