powelli1 Posted June 12, 2012 Share Posted June 12, 2012 Hi this is a good photo of the underside of a ray plate ( teeth ) but if you can do a photo of the top or the other side it just mite be an Aetobatus sp. or it could be a Myliobatis sp. ray mouth plate but I need to see the other side to get it.

Kehbe Posted August 18, 2012 Share Posted August 18, 2012 Very interesting indeed! My first thought was that it was a piece of a woven basket! Doh! Unusual stuff! Thanks for sharing your pic's! It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives. It is the one that is the most adaptable to change.
