Taeniura lymma
a colorful stingray with large bright blue spots on an oval, elongated disc and blue side-stripes along the tail. The snout is rounded and angular and the disc has broadly rounded outer corners. They have a short tapering tail that is less than twice the body length when intact, with a broad lower caudal finfold that extends to the tail tip.
The blue-spotted ray is found around coral reefs in a depth range up to to 20 mtr. They are only rarely found buried under the sand
