Both juvenile mangrove whiprays I U. granulatus i and cowtail stingrays I P. ater i appear social and are often observed feeding and resting in groups, likely as a predator-avoidance strategy (Kanno et al., 2019; Martins et al., 2020a, 2020b). Keywords: agonistic display; batoidea; communication; elasmobranch; predator avoidance; sound production EN agonistic display batoidea communication elasmobranch predator avoidance sound production 1 5 5 11/03/22 20221101 NES 221101 Although almost 990 species of bony fish (Osteichthyes) actively produce sounds, evidence for active sound production by elasmobranchs - sharks, rays, and skates - is scarce (Looby et al., 2022). Here we present the first records of voluntary active sound production in the wild by three individuals of two species of stingray: the mangrove whipray I Urogymnus granulatus i (Figure 1b) and the cowtail stingray I Pastinachus ater i (Figure 1c). Similarly, in some shark species an unexpected sound or the sudden increased intensity of a sound can result in rapid withdrawal from the sound source (Klimley & Myrberg, 1979; Myrberg, 2001; Myrberg et al., 1978).
