Pseudobatos
''Pseudobatos'' is a genus of fish in the Rhinobatidae family. Although its constituent species were previously assigned to ''Rhinobatos'', recent authors treat it as distinct. They are found in warmer coastal parts of the Americas, ranging from northern Chile to California (USA) on the Pacific side, and from northeastern Argentina to North Carolina (USA) on the Atlantic side. They are brownish or grayish above, and reach up to depending on the exact species. Species There are nine currently recognized species in this genus: * ''Pseudobatos buthi'' K.M. Rutledge, 2019 (Spadenose guitarfish) * ''Pseudobatos glaucostigmus'' ( D. S. Jordan & C. H. Gilbert, 1883) (Speckled guitarfish) * ''Pseudobatos horkelii'' ( J. P.

Pseudobatos Buthi
''Pseudobatos buthi'', the spadenose guitarfish, is a ray in the family Rhinobatidae. Described in 2019 based on 82 museum specimens, little is known about this species in the wild. All 82 museum specimens were collected in the 1940s and 1950s and sat hidden at UCLA's fish collection and the Natural History Museum of Los Angeles County until they were described by PhD student, Kelsi Rutledge. It likely is similar in ecology and behavior to its closest relative, ''Pseudobatos productus''. This species is found in the Gulf of California and is a fairly small ray, with an intermediate body form between that of a shark and a ray. It is benthic and found in shallow water, spending most of its time on the seafloor in sandy, muddy, coastal regions. It is different from other species due to its morphological characters, including a more narrow head and snout, as well as no spots or scales and thorns between orbits In celestial mechanics, an orbit is the curved trajectory of an o ...

Rhinobatos Percellens
''Rhinobatos'' is a genus of fish in the Rhinobatidae family. Although previously used to encompass all guitarfishes, it was found to be polyphyletic, and recent authorities have transferred many species included in the genus to ''Acroteriobatus'', ''Glaucostegus'', and ''Pseudobatos''. Species The 15 currently recognized species in this genus are: * ''Rhinobatos albomaculatus'' Norman, 1930 (White-spotted guitarfish) * ''Rhinobatos annandalei'' Norman, 1926 (Annandale's guitarfish) * ''Rhinobatos borneensis'' Last, Séret & Naylor, 2016 (Borneo guitarfish) * ''Rhinobatos holcorhynchus'' Norman, 1922 (Slender guitarfish) * ''Rhinobatos hynnicephalus'' J.

Pseudobatos Horkelii
The Brazilian guitarfish (''Rhinobatos horkelii'') is a species of fish in the family Rhinobatidae. It is endemic to Brazil, where its natural habitat is coastal waters on the continental shelf. This fish is viviparous and has a long gestation period, concluding with the birth of live pups in February. At this time the fish are subject to intense fishing activity but catches have been dwindling in recent years as a result of overfishing. Because so few breeding-size fish remain, the International Union for Conservation of Nature has assessed the fish's conservation status as being " critically endangered". Taxonomy The Brazilian guitarfish was first described as ''Rhinobatos horkelii'' by Müller & Henle in 1841. They named the new species in honour of the German botanist, Dr. Johann Horkel, Professor of Plant Physiology at the University of Berlin, who had sent them a specimen of the fish preserved in alcohol.

Albert Günther
Albert Karl Ludwig Gotthilf Günther FRS, also Albert Charles Lewis Gotthilf Günther (3 October 1830 – 1 February 1914), was a German-born British zoologist, ichthyologist, and herpetologist. Günther is ranked the second-most productive reptile taxonomist (after George Albert Boulenger) with more than 340 reptile species described. Early life and career Günther was born in Esslingen in Swabia (Württemberg). His father was a ''Stiftungs-Commissar'' in Esslingen and his mother was Eleonora Nagel. He initially schooled at the Stuttgart Gymnasium. His family wished him to train for the ministry of the Lutheran Church for which he moved to the University of Tübingen. A brother shifted from theology to medicine, and he, too, turned to science and medicine at Tübingen in 1852. His first work was "''Ueber den Puppenzustand eines Distoma''". He graduated in medicine with an M.D. from Tübingen in 1858, the same year in which he published a handbook of zoology for students of ...

Charles Henry Gilbert
Charles Henry Gilbert (December 5, 1859 in Rockford, Illinois – April 20, 1928 in Palo Alto, California) was a pioneer ichthyologist and Fisheries science, fishery biologist of particular significance to natural history of the western United States. He collected and studied fishes from Central America north to Alaska and described many new species. Later he became an expert on Pacific salmon and was a noted conservation movement, conservationist of the Pacific Northwest. He is considered by many as the intellectual founder of American fisheries biology. He was one of the 22 "pioneer professors" (founding faculty) of Stanford University. Early life and education Born in Rockford, Illinois, Gilbert spent his early years in Indianapolis, Indiana, where he came under the influence of his high school teacher, David Starr Jordan (1851‒1931). When Jordan became Professor of Natural History at Butler University in Indianapolis, Gilbert followed and received his B.A. degree in 187 ...
