The Stingray Symposium staff announces a new addition to the program, a panel discussion on Stingray Identification and Taxonomy. The panel will be hosted by leading authorities on stingray taxonomy. Symposium registrants are invited to submit images of stingrays in advance for discussion and identification by the experts. Images should be emailed to Kevin Wai at kevin@notjustfish.com. The Symposium staff will select representative images from those submitted and they will then be sent to the panel members prior to the Symposium. Please indicate in your email if you would like your name to appear with the image. Please do not send images of tank raised or captive bred hybrid specimens: all images should be of wild, naturally occurring freshwater stingrays. Thanks guys looking forward to this great event. If you did not register better get going time is running out. Mike
 
i need to register....
 
I think it would be a good idea to ask the biologist standards for the pictures and if there are particular anatomical feature they want photos of?
 
i sent him a pic of my motoro to see if their is a scientific name or not. i also saw this ray on frank's site.

Ah, dont cry. I live in Denmark. :nilly:


I live in a great state of texas where rays are illegal.. I can only imagine the florida MFK'ers where black arowanas and rays are illegal..

I would like to attend, but why when i can't even have one ???

Im mad im not going to be able to make it

Why not? Need a lift? We have a few cars going from Minneapolis.

Vamptrev - Hobbiests give them variant names, but to a biologist - they are all the same species. Often times the most you might hear will be reference to geographic location animal is living in the wild.
