That ray looks identical to the pup that I have!Pictures will speak for themselves I think it could very well be a Snow Leopard Ray. Opinions!!!!!:headbang2

sorry for the highjack.
 
They are nice rays but yes from the pic you posted they are not a Xingu sp. The multiple spine rows are very noticeable even a pup of a true xingu and your defiantly appear to be a single row.
I do have a question of another way to possibly tell the difference of then and that is the texture of your rays? Is the skin smooth looking like that of a leo or is it kind of grainy that of like a marbled motoro?
Just curious :)
 
Looks close
 
clearly its a different species bro look at the tail spines. Xingu are covered I'n rows of spines
