Type locality, reef off Manaba Beach near Margate, southern KwaZulu-Natal; SAIAB 78777 (holotype of Electrolux addisoni, 51.5 cm TL, 30.5 cm disc width, adult male). Recorded along an approximately 310 km. strip of coastline from Coffee Bay, Eastern Cape Province, to just north of Durban, KwaZulu-Natal inside the 50 m isobath. This conspicuous, active ray is known only from a few diver records from reefs reported over approximately two decades and its conservation status needs to be critically assessed (Ref. 75572). |
