Elasmobranchii (hajar och rockor) (sharks and rays) > Rajiformes (Skates and rays) > Rajidae (Skates)
Etymology: Dipturus: Greek, di = two + Greek, pteryx = fin (Ref. 45335).
Eponymy: Gigas was a giant in Greek mythology, the child of Uranus and Gaea. The name is applied to taxa that are giants of their kind. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Size / Vikt / Age

Maturity: L_m ? range ? - ? cm
Max length : 186 cm TL hane/ej könsbestämd; (Ref. 114953)

Found on sand-mud bottoms of upper continental and insular slopes (Ref. 41299, Ref. 114953). Feed on invertebrates and bony fishes (Ref. 9908, Ref. 114953). Oviparous. Distinct pairing with embrace. Young may tend to follow large objects, such as their mother (Ref. 205). Eggs are oblong capsules with stiff pointed horns at the corners deposited in sandy or muddy flats (Ref. 205). Egg capsules are 22.0-23.5 cm long and 14.0-14.5 cm wide (Ref. 41249, 41253). A male holotype reaches maturity at 135 cm TL, females at 115 cm TL (Ref. 114953).

Estimates based on models

Preferred temperature (Ref. 123201): 3.6 - 5.6, mean 4.6 °C (based on 132 cells).

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804): PD₅₀ = 0.5000 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].

Bayesian length-weight: a=0.00282 (0.00131 - 0.00604), b=3.25 (3.08 - 3.42), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this Genus-body shape (Ref. 93245).

Trofisk nivå (Ref. 69278): 4.0 ±0.62 se; based on food items.

Resiliens (Ref. 120179): Låg, lägsta populationsfördubblingstid 4,5-14 år (Assuming fecundity<100).

Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153): Very high vulnerability (90 of 100).
