Lesser Butterfly Ray




The lesser butterfly ray (Gymnura micrura) also sometimes known as smooth butterfly rays. They have no venomous barb. Some of their prey includes fish, crustaceans, and bivalves. Their dorsal side varies in colour from grey, to brown, to almost greenish. They prefer sandy environments and are often found in estuaries, bays, and off beaches.
