Abstract
Mass mortality of stingrays was observed at Mankeshwar Beach near Kharkhand village, Uran, District Raigad on 22-08-2010. About 100 – 150 fishes were reported to have stranded in rocky embankments of the intertidal zone. These ‘bundh’ like structures of stones are about 1 to 1.5 m in height, which is used by the local fishermen to fix nets to catch fishes during tidal movement. The species was identified as Himantura uarnak, (Forsskål 1775) commonly called ‘Honeycomb sting ray’.
