Himantura australis
Himantura australis, the Australian whipray, is a type of whiptail stingray found mainly in Australia and south of New Guinea island. This species is a minor bycatch and usually released back to ocean by Australian trawlers, although it might be retained for human consumption by the New Guinean locals.
