Description
The round ribbontail ray is a fairly large stingray that can grow up to 1.8 m wide. Although generally non-aggressive and popular with ecotourist divers, it should be treated with caution, as its venomous spine can cause painful injuries. Due to its low reproduction rate, the loss of its coral reef habitat, and overfishing, the round ribbontail ray is listed as Vulnerable on the IUCN Red List.
