Halavi guitarfish
The halavi guitarfish is a part of the Glaucostegidae family. It is a species of ray found in the Indo-West Pacific. Recorded twice, in 1997 and 2004, in the levantine waters, the question of its permanent settlement in the Mediterranean Sea remains open. Its name is derived from the Arabic word Øلاوي.
They are usually large with a short, wide snout with a rounded tip. Typically they are a yellow/gray color, which can help them blend in on the sea floor. Averagely, they are born at around 29cm, but can grow to be 171 cm.
It feeds on small molluscs and bony fishes.
