ສັດທີ່ມີກະດູກສັນຫຼັງ: 108 - 122. Diagnosis: Dasyatis ukpam is a very large and thick-bodied freshwater dasyatid (Ref. 26277). Entire dorsal surface of disc covered with stout-spined denticles, smooth in newborn (Ref. 26277). Sting greatly reduced in size or absent (Ref. 26277).

ຊີວະສາດ     ຄຳແປສັບ (ຕ.ຢ. epibenthic)

Benthic species mostly in lakes and rives, found more than 240 km upstream from the sea (possibly also coastal). The life history and present status of populations in West Africa is unknown. Type specimens were born after capture of the mother; few specimens exist (Ref. 114953). Ovoviviparous (Ref. 50449).

Life cycle and mating behavior Maturities | ການສືບພັນ | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | ຕົວອ່ອນ

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). Distinct pairing with embrace (Ref. 205).
