Info



If you want to find out about the size of rays in specialist literature, usually written in English, you will often come across two abbreviations that ultimately mean the same thing: DW or WD.
If you look at FishBase, WoRMS or first descriptions of rays, you will find these abbreviations.
The total length including shoal is only rarely given, the TL.
