Some new data on roughtail stingray Dasyatis centroura (Mitchill, 1815) (Pisces: Dasyatidae) and spiny butterfly ray Gymnura altavela (Linnaeus, 1758) (Pisces: Gymnuridae) from the southern Adriatic

A roughtail stingray, Dasyatis centroura, and a spiny buterrfly ray, Gymnura altavela, were caught near Koločep Island (Elafiti Archipelago, southern Adriatic) and settlement Crkvice (peninsula Pelješac, southern Adriatic) in October 2002 and November 2000, respectively. As far as the roughtail stingray is concerned this is, to our best knowledge, the largest specimen recorded. The presented morphometric data of spiny butterfly ray are the first for this species in the Adriatic Sea.
