The devil fish (Mobula mobular), also known as the giant devil ray, is an Eagle ray in the family Myliobatidae. They are endemic to the Mediterranean Sea and can be found elsewhere in the Eastern Atlantic Ocean, off the southwest coast of Ireland and south of Portugal.
It is larger than the lesser devil ray, and it possesses a spiny tail. The species feeds on crustaceans and small schools of fish.
The devil fish has a limited range and a low rate of reproduction. As a result it is sensitive to environmental changes and increases in fishing. The main threats to this species come from pollution in the Mediterranean and accidental, unintended capture in various fishing equipment including trawls, tuna traps, and dragnets meant for swordfish, none of which are intended to ensnare Giant Rays. The 2004 IUCN Red List listed the devil fish as a vulnerable species, but in 2006 it was reclassified as an endangered species.
