Remarks : This species has a confused taxonomic and nomenclatural history.A neotype (CAS 56095) was designated for Cephaloptera eregoodootenkee Bleeker, 1859 , by Notarbartolo-di-Sciara (1987) for Cuvier 1829 , which was considered an unneeded subsequent new name for Dicerobatis eregoodoo Cantor 1849 by Notarbartolo di Sciara et al . (2020) . White et al. (2018) concluded that it was a synonym of M. kuhlii , however Notarbartolo di Sciara et al . (2020) consider these to be separate species. These authors also clarified the name as M. eregoodoo . Conservation status : EN (2020).
