Redescription
Scientific Name Notes The description is limited to a name in a 3-sentence long abstract listing potential hosts as: Trygon sephen, Rhynchobatis djeddensis, Aetomylaeus maculatus. For nomenclatural purposes, abstracts do not constitute published work (ICZN, Art. 9) and the name is therefore a nomen nudum (i.e, unavailable).
