R. doello-juradoi is the most numerous of a small group of rays which we found only in deep water, especially in the Falkland trough. The other three species were all new to science.

Fig. 9. Distribution of Raja doello-juradoi and the other deep-water rays. First survey: triangles; second survey: squares; third survey: circles; negative observations left blank. Numbers refer only to R. doello-juradoi. g = R. griseocauda; s = R. scaphiops; a = R. albomaculata; positive records only. Raja macloviana Norman. The general spatial distribution of this species (Fig. 10) is very similar to that of R. doello-juradoi, but a consideration of its distribution with depth shows that a higher proportion of R. macloviana was taken just on the shelf, instead of just ' over the edge'; hence the.
