All freshwater rays cartillage is not conected in the front of the head. they meet, but are not conected. I believe the reason for batman rays is because the flesh did not fuse together where the cartledge meet.
At least this is what i can gather from seeing stingray x-rays.

This one doesnt meet at all, and from when it was still alive, it looks like a perfectly normal stingray with a flawlessly round disc. The cartillage does not meet at all, as you can see in the picture, the space is in between is pretty big.
