Bathyraja Shuntovi
The longnose deep-sea skate (''Bathyraja shuntovi'') is a large skate in the family Arhynchobatidae. It was first described in 1985 from specimens collected near New Zealand. It is known to be a deep-water skate, however lack of research trawls at depths past 1500 meters limits knowledge of the depths where the species can be found. The species is dark brown or grey, with an eponymous elongated snout. The species has been measured to be a maximum of 140 cm in total length, although size variation and growth patterns are not known. Etymology The skate was named in honor of Vyacheslav P. Shuntov (b. 1937), who was the chief scientist of the Pacific Institute of Scientific Fisheries and Oceanography Center in Vladivostok, where the author was working at the time. Conservation status The New Zealand Department of Conservation has classified the longnose deep-sea skate as "Not Threatened" under the New Zealand Threat Classification System The New Zealand Threat Classific ...

Arhynchobatidae is a family of skates and is commonly known as the softnose skates. It belongs to the order Rajiformes in the superorder Batoidea of rays. At least 104 species have been described, in 13 genera. Softnose skates have at times been placed in the same family as hardnose skates, but most recent authors recognize them as a distinct family. Members of the Arhynchobatidae can be distinguished from hardnose skates in having a soft and flexible snout, as well as a more or less reduced rostrum. Genera The 13 recognized genera of softnose skates are: * '' Arhynchobatis'' * '' Atlantoraja'' * ''Bathyraja'' * '' Brochiraja'' * '' Insentiraja'' * '' Irolita'' * '' Notoraja'' * ''Pavoraja'' * ''Psammobatis'' * ''Pseudoraja'' * '' Rhinoraja'' * ''Rioraja The Rio skate (''Rioraja agassizii'') is a shallow water skate native to the Atlantic coast of South America from Brazil to southern Argentina.
