• Fishmount Species Information
  • Scientific Name: Dasyatidae
  • Average Weight: 600 - 700 lbs
  • Location & Habitat: The stingray is a coastal resident of the western North Atlantic Ocean. It ranges from Chesapeake Bay south to Florida, and in the Gulf of Mexico south to Campeche, Mexico. This stingray prefers warm coastal and estuarine waters above 59° F and can endure temperatures above 86° F. Temperature induced seasonal migrations have been observed throughout its range. The Atlantic stingray is found in the Chesapeake Bay, its northernmost range, during the summer and fall when the water temperature is warmest. Between October and November it moves south to warmer waters. In other areas, rays migrate from shallow to deeper waters where the water is above 59° F during the winter months.While inshore, the Atlantic stingray generally occurs in shallow waters at depths of 6.5-20 feet. During its seasonal offshore migration, it is rarely located in water deeper than 80 feet. This fish prefers habitats with a sand or silt/sand seabed, which allows the stingray to bury itself to hide from prey or predators.This stingray is euryhaline and can maintain adequate physiological functions at varying degrees of salinity. Stingrays found in the St. Johns River system, Florida, represent the only permanent fresh water population of an elasmobranch in North America.
  • Biology: Stingrays in Florida coastal lagoons reportedly reach a maximum disc width of 12.8 inches for males and 14.6 inches for females. Males mature around 7.9 inches disc width with females maturing at 9.4 inches disc width. In Freshwater populations females mature at 8.7 inches disc width and males mature at 8.3 inches disc width.
  • Physical Description: This stingray is one of the smallest rays in the family Dasyatidae. The flattened pectoral fins of the disc are continuous and extend anterior to the head and posterior to the pelvic region. Unlike most rays, the snout is elongated. The head is slightly elevated and contains spiracles that enable the ray to take in water dorsally while lying on the seabed. The gills, which expel the water, are located ventrally. The disc is approximately 1.1 times as broad as it is long. The tail is long and tapered, oval in the cross section, and extends behind the body like a whip. Dorsal and ventral tail folds are present. The dorsal fold is located posterior to the tail spine. The tail spines of stingrays are thought to be modified scales, tapering to a sharp point with retrorse serrations along the lateral margins. Venom is produced along two narrow grooves on both the dorsal and ventral sides. At full length, the Atlantic stingray’s tail spine is approximately 25% of its disc width, with females having longer tail spines than males. The distance between the outer margins of the eye orbits is about the same length as the tail spine. The spine is generally round but slightly flattened dorso-ventrally to a breadth of 4-5% its length.
