''Mobula eregoodootenkee'' (the pygmy devil ray or longhorned mobula) is a species of eagle ray in the genus ''Mobula''. It is endemic to the Indian Ocean and central-west Pacific Ocean. It ranges from South Africa in the west to the Philippines in the east, north to Vietnam, and south to the northern coast of Australia. It is a brownish-grey colour, with a whitish underside. It grows up to 100 cm wide. The species feeds on plankton and small fish. The longhorned mobula is an ovoviviparous fish, usually giving birth to a single pup in shallow waters. The young stay in these waters until they mature. The ray is likely a bycatch at several fisheries, being entangled in nets meant for other species. It is marketed in Thailand and possibly elsewhere in southeast Asia. ==References== * Database entry includes justification for why this species is near threatened * 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Mobula eregoodootenkee」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
