BLAINVILLE, 1816 95 



Aetobatus Blainville, 112; type Raja narinari Euphrasen. 



As restricted by Mullcr & Hcnle, 1838; not as restricted by Cantor, 1850. 

 The latter arrangement would accord better with Blainvillc's obvious purpose of 

 making Raja aql'ila his "Aetobatis vulgaris," the best known of these "raies 

 aigles," his type. The first restriction, however, has the sanction of Agassiz, Giin- 

 ther, and Gill.
