Rajiformes (Skates and rays) >
Rajidae (Skates)
Etymology: Amblyraja: Greek, amblys = darkness + Latin, raja, -ae = ray (Raja sp.) (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: This is a form of toponym rather than an eponym: TAAF = Territoire des Terres australes et antarctiques françaises (French Southern and Antarctic Territories). (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
Taxonomic Remarks
Possibly a junior synonym of A. hyperborea due to strong morphological similarity according to Ebert & Stehmann (2013, Ref. 98315) and Weigmann (2016, Ref. 118749) (Ref. 118749).

Geschlechtsreife: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 90.0 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 114953)
Found on insular shelves and slopes. Mainly feeds on benthic invertebrates and bony fishes (Ref. 114953). Oviparous (Ref. 50449). Eggs have horn-like projections on the shell (Ref. 205). Young hatches at ca. 17 cm TL (Ref. 114953).

Oviparous, paired eggs are laid. Embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449). Eggs have horn-like projections on the shell (Ref. 205).
