Etymology: Myliobatis: Greek, mylo = mill + Greek, + Greek, batis,-idos = a ray (Raja sp.) (Ref. 45335).

Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Écologie
marin benthopélagique; profondeur 200 - ? m (Ref. 6871). Deep-water; 17°S - 26°S
Eastern Indian Ocean and Western Central Pacific: known from single specimens from off Forestier Island, Western Australia and Cape Moreton, Queensland in Australia. Possibly not distinct from Myliobatis tobijei or Myliobatis aquila; all three species need to be critically compared to determine if they are different species (Ref. 9862).

Life cycle and mating behavior
Maturité | Reproduction | Frai | Œufs | Fécondité | Larves
Exhibit ovoviparity (aplacental viviparity), with embryos feeding initially on yolk, then receiving additional nourishment from the mother by indirect absorption of uterine fluid enriched with mucus, fat or protein through specialised structures (Ref. 50449).
