Description
Description

The giant guitarfish (Rhynchobatus djiddensis) looks like a shark because of its shark-like dorsal tail and elongated pointed snout, however, it is no shark, as it fits in the family Rhinidae, and harmless to humans. It is also called whitespotted wedge fish and common to the western Indian Ocean, Persian Gulf, and the Red Sea. A black spot is present above each pectoral fin of juveniles while in adults, it is absent or maybe a dusky ring. Slow growth rate, fondness for coastal habitat, increasing demand for its meat, fins, and ease of catch by various fishing gear make it an imperiled species.

Batoidea, or rays, are the largest group of fish whose bodies are made out of cartilage instead of bones, similar to their relatives the shark. Rays are easily identifiable by their flat bodies with elongated fins attached to their heads, and gills placed on their underbellies.
