Abstract

The description (general morphology, coloration, spinulation, biometry, meristic) and some biological observations (sexuality, reproduction, fecundity) point out that R.naevus and R.melitensis are neighbouring but different spp. Nevertheless, some meristic characters could include R.melitensis into sub-gen Leucoraja Malm, 1877.
