Summary[edit]

Description Perhaps the most eye-catching feature of this stingray is its long, whip-like tail, which may be 2½ times as long as the body. The many thorny plates, or tubercles, on the outer parts of the body, or disc, and along the base of the tail give this species its common name, roughtail. Like other stingrays, the roughtail has one or two sharp, serrated spines, which are equipped with venom glands and covered with an integumentary sheath—a thin layer of skin.
