Ray guitarfish jaw on brass base
PU917
Rhinobatos, also called Ray-guitar or Ray-shark, lives most of time buried under the sand of warm seas, waiting for a prey of the seabed (crabs, shells, invertebrate). That's the reason why their jaws are made to crush the food, and are not able to bite and shred a fish, with these kind of small rounded teeth.
What an amazing silhouette, up to 3.5meters long: same as rays, the ventral side where the mouth is located, is completely flat, whereas the dorsal and anal fins are well developed, giving it a shark look and way of moving, but it's not at all!
