Default Black & white ray discussion

Recently came across this outstanding black & white ray on internet.

Since black & white ray quality has become more variety in terms of coloration and Patten, any stingray can share how shall we classify this type of ray in current trench? P13 sp? Black sp?

Feel free to comment and enjoy the discussion:

With lesser black portion as contrast, the white portion looks more towards creamy colour.

There is no way to trace it's parentage, however, your description is accurate "high quality black designer ray".

Thanks for the input!

I like your scientific term simply a Fresh water stingray (big eyes type) sp.

Misunderstand my point bro,

This is my own point of view, may be wrong, I should re-phase into this way:
Place a white ping pong ball onto the white paper, it does not looks so white compares to the same ball that place onto black paper.





Anyway, I did not view the ray live, hence not very sure the spots are pure white or creamy.

agree with marshy, no matter how beautiful or how white the spots are, if they are the product of crossbreed, they should be categorized as Potamotrygon Sp
