Rhinobatos is a genus of fish in the Rhinobatidae family.[1] Although previously used to encompass all guitarfishes, it was found to be polyphyletic,[2] and recent authorities have transferred many species included in the genus to Acroteriobatus, Glaucostegus, and Pseudobatos.[3]
These fishes lived from the Tithonian age to Present (from 150 to 0 million years ago). Fossils have been found in Europe, Africa, Jordan, Syria, Saudi Arabia, India and United States.
