Abstract |
Part B, Nos. 1a and 1b of this series, comprising of the Batomorphii the first and the second sections on the Rajoidei, is continued with the last group of rajoid taxa as far as material was available. The tooth morphology of representatives of eleven more genera and subgenera, namely Arhynchobatis, Bathyraja richardsoni-type, Cruriraja, Irolita, Notoraja, Pavoraja (Insentiraja), Pavoraja (Pavoraja), Pseudoraja, Raja (Atlantoraja), Raja (Okamejei) and Rhinoraja, is described and illustrated by SEM-photographs. Differential diagnoses and systematic interpretations are presented as a result of the odontological examinations described here and in the previous two issues 1a and 1b for the supraspefic taxa of the Rajoidei. |
