Dasyatis marmorata, the marbled stingray, is a species of stingray of the family Dasyatidae. Its geographic range covers the central and south-eastern Atlantic, from Morocco to South Africa.[1] It is also present in the coastal waters of southern Mediterranean Sea and the Levantine Basin.[2][3] This bottom-dweller generally inhabits sandy or muddy flats near rocky reefs and kelp forests, to a depth of 50 m (164 ft).
