Etymology: Telatrygon: Name from Latin 'telum' for javelin, spear, arrow, dart and Greek 'trygon' for stingray; referring to the long, narrowly pointed snout possessed by all members of the genus.
Eponymy: This species’ binomial zugei is after zugu-ei, the Japanese name for this species. (Ref. 128868), visit book page.

Life cycle and mating behavior
Maturità | Riproduzione | Deposizione | Uova | Fecundity | Larve
Exhibit ovoviparity (aplacental viviparity), with embryos feeding initially on yolk, then receiving additional nourishment from the mother by indirect absorption of uterine fluid enriched with mucus, fat or protein through specialized structures (Ref. 50449). Distinct pairing with embrace (Ref. 205). Gives birth to litters of 1-4 pups; born at 7-10 cm WD. No reproductive synchronicity (Ref.58048).
