Шаблон:Short description Шаблон:Speciesbox
The bigtooth river stingray or Tocantins River ray (Potamotrygon henlei) is a species of freshwater fish in the family Potamotrygonidae.[1] It is endemic to the lower Tocantins basin and Araguaia basin in Brazil,[2] and prefers muddy bottoms.[3] It is sometimes kept in aquaria.[3] This stingray is generally common and its population increased after the Tucuruí Dam was completed, unlike many other species in its range.[3]
Appearance and relatives
P. henlei reaches up to Шаблон:Convert in disc width and Шаблон:Convert in total length.[3] It is replaced by the closely related P. rex in the mid and upper Tocantins basin, but that species has concentrically clustered yellow-orange spots.[2] Two other close relatives where the spots are yellowish-white (as in P. henlei) are found in other Brazilian rivers: P. leopoldi from the Xingu River basin and P. albimaculata from the Tapajós River basin.[4] Compared to P. leopoldi, P. henlei is duller above, appearing blackish or dark gray-brown (as opposed to deeper black in P. leopoldi), and its underparts have a large white center and broad brownish-dusky edges (underparts mostly brownish-dusky in P. leopoldi).[4][5] Compared to P. albimaculata, P. henlei has larger yellowish-white spots above.[4][5]
British Scientist and Angler , Jeremy Wade[6] once hauled out a Bigtooth River Ray from a boat , The Stingray had a black body with yellow isolated spots around the disc. Brown blotched specimens of P. Henlei are also recorded.
