Hey guys, I believe these are undulate ray? However sometimes you can see different pattern on them so I wonder if there are two species of undulate ray?

Re: Undulate ray?

The tail of a stingray tapers down much quicker than the undulate in that picture and is almost whip-like at the end

Re: Undulate ray?
Hi Baitdigger , I did not mean the Undulate which is in the centre of the picture , look above it and to the right and it looks like a Stinger sitting on the bottom.

Re: Undulate ray?
Sorry I misunderstood. I blew up that section to 300% and it looks very stinger like particularly the head section and the relative positioning of the front of the wing to the head section but I can see nothing that would definitely rule either way. I believe I am seeing what I would like to see
but the fact that the OP's base is Kerry and the time of the year plus the warm weather would lead me to believe there is every possibility it could be

Re: Undulate ray?
Hi guys - thanks for your posts.
However I did caught a small stingray a few days before (see the pictures in my blog in my profile on the site).
