The Yellow Stingray © Shedd Aquarium

The yellow stingray is a member of the Urolophidea. This ray can be found in Atlantic coastal waters from North Carolina to Florida and throughout the Gulf of Mexico. It is typically found in shallow water in sandy and muddy habitats, often buried in the bottom. The yellow stingray is characterized by a round body. It has a well developed caudal fin that extends around the tip of its tail. The tail spine is located just anterior or underneath the caudal fin.
