The bluespotted ribbontail ray has a sandy-coloured, rounded disc covered in vivid blue spots. A thin, elongated tail follows its body. It lives near the bottom in coastal Indo-Pacific waters.
It gathers molluscs, polychaete worms, shrimp and crabs. While feeding it moves just above the substrate using its pectoral fins, taking prey with its underside mouth. Eyes on top allow it to watch its surroundings while searching the bottom.
