Abstract
On 04-06-2011, three numbers of large-sized (DW 410-475mm) Giant Devil Ray Manta birostris were landed by gillnet at Chennai Fisheries Harbour. The weight ranged from 650 kg to 1000 kg. The rays were sold for Rs 10200/-, Rs16400/- and Rs 22600/-. On 09-06-2011, six numbers of the same species were landed by gillnet and these rays were totally auctioned for about Rs 100000/-. The rays were priced high due to the high value of their gill rakers.
