Rajidae (Skates)
Etymology: Beringraja: Named for the Bering Sea, though to be the origin of the two species in this genus.; binoculata: From the Latin 'bi' meaning two and 'oculata' meaning eyed - referring to the arrangement of pigment on the pectoral fin bases (Ref. 6885).

Ökologie
seewasser demersal; tiefenbereich 3 - 800 m (Ref. 6793), usually 3 - 110 m (Ref. 2850). Temperate; 61°N - 31°N, 165°W - 117°W (Ref. 55279)

Length at first maturity / Size / Gewicht / Alter
Maturity: Lm ?, range 130 - ? cm
Max length : 244 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 2850); common length : 180 cm TL Männchen/unbestimmt; (Ref. 2850); max. veröff. Gewicht: 91.0 kg (Ref. 2850)
Rückenflossenstacheln (insgesamt) : 0; Afterflossenstacheln: 0. Dorsal fins well back on tail, small; caudal and anal fins absent; pectorals broad, attached to snout and incorporated with body; pelvic fins large, moderately concave on free margins (Ref. 6885). Posterior sides of tail with a small fleshy keel on either side (Ref. 6885).
Largest skate in North America (Ref. 2850). Feed on crustaceans and fishes (Ref. 6885). Oviparous. Distinct pairing with embrace. Young may tend to follow large objects, such as their mother (Ref. 205). Young hatch at 18-23 cm TL (Ref. 114953). Eggs are oblong capsules with stiff pointed horns at the corners deposited in sandy or muddy flats (Ref. 205). Egg capsules are 22.8-30.5 cm long and 11.0-19.4 cm wide (Ref. 41249, 41300, 41357). Pectoral fins utilized for human consumption (Ref. 2850). Marketed fresh and frozen; eaten fried and baked (Ref. 9988).
Life cycle and mating behavior
Maturities | Fortpflanzung | Spawnings | Egg(s) | Fecundities | Larven
Up to 7 embryos per egg case (Ref. 2850). Oviparous, paired eggs are laid. Embryos feed solely on yolk (Ref. 50449). Distinct pairing with embrace. Young may tend to follow large objects, such as their mother (Ref. 205).
