The family Potamotrygonidae is the only monophyletic group between the extant elasmobranchs, being the only exclusive to freshwater environment and endemic to south american rivers. Despite its monophyly, this group has considerable taxonomic problems, thus its great dorsal coloration and patterns variation and the lack of a great number of diagnostic characters, resulting in erroneos ide…
