Devil Rays
Mobula Rafinesque, 1810b: 48 View in CoL , 61. Type species: Mobula auriculata Rafinesque, 1810b View in CoL (= Raia mobular Bonnaterre, 1788 View in CoL ); by monotypy (also by absolute tautonymy).
Remarks: The genus Mobula is poorly known in South African waters due to revisions to the genus and misidentification of individual species ( Hosegood et al., 2020). A comprehensive review of those species occurring in South African waters and their distributional limits is wanting.
