Very interesting ray, looks like a motoro variant to me too. Does he know where it was collected from? Argentina?

they are CB from germany, shipped over to my country.. The seller told me the origin was from argentine, im not so sure about it though.. What do you think?

Isn't Arg. home of Falkneri?

Possible Falkneri/Motoro?

Im not sure also, i will post more pic showing the spots, thx guys

post some shots of the tail.... looks like a motoro to me though

yeah the seller told me it was motoro variant, which the name was motoro sp. argentine, and it does looks like motoro, but with some great small pattern spots on it..

[stingray man]

Definalty a great looking ray though

Can anyone ID this ray? sorry the picture is a bit blur.. I was told that this was Potamotrygon Falkneri argentine.. What do you guys think? thx

Yes, P. falkneri can be found in parts of Argentina along with a few other species.

I personally believe natural ray hybridization rarely if ever occurs. These fish have swam those waters for MILLIONS of years. If natural hybridization was as common as some people suggest, I would think by now we wouldnt have such a diverse genus as we do now.

Saying that I just looked at those pictures again...is that ray covered in tiny dots in between the spots?

yes, it was covered with tiny dots between the spots as u can see from the pictures.. i doubt this piece got otorongo blood inside, what do you think?

Thanks
