Giant Oceanic Manta Ray (Manta birostris). As its name suggests, the Giant Oceanic Manta Ray is generally larger than its smaller reef resident relatives, with average disc-widths of around 4-5 metres (13-16.5 ft) and in extremely large specimens exceeding 7 metres (23 ft). Large oceanic mantas might weigh up to 2 tonnes (4,440lbs).
The reef manta is smaller than the oceanic manta ray, with an average disc-width of 3-3.5 metres (9-11.5ft) and a possible maximum of 4.5 metres (15ft). Itâs likely at such sizes reef mantas would weigh in at around 1.4 tonnes (3,100 lbs). All mantas start off small, so size is not necessarily a good identification feature. The dorsal shading and ventral spot patterning however can be used to discern between these two species.
