"Known parasites of the estuary stingray include the tapeworms Heterocotyle chin and Shirleyrhynchus aetobatidis,[8][9] the nematode Echinocephalus overstreeti,[10] and the monogeneans Empruthotrema dasyatidis and Neoentobdella cribbi.[11][12]" Links? Don't be scared of redlinks.

"Finally, this ray's reputation for damaging shellfish has led to persecution by commercial shellfish farmers.[1]" Howso?
the source doesn't go into detail; I assume killing them somehow
"This ray is not known to be dangerous to humans.[5]" Feels a bit "tacked on". Also, does it not sting?
Fishbase only lists it as "harmless". I'll get rid of the sentence until more specific info becomes available.
