Skate zone5/1/2023 ![]() ![]() Some research suggests the electric impulses are too weak to be a mechanism used for defense or hunting. Although the anatomy of the skate's electric organ is well described, its function is poorly understood. The impulses put out by the electric organs of the skate are considered to be weak, asynchronous, long-lasting signals. Unlike many other electrogenic fishes, skates are unique in having paired electric organs which run longitudinally through the tail in the lateral musculature of the notochord. Among the Chondrichthyes, the only groups to possess electric organs are the electric ray and the skates. ![]() ![]() The electric organ is a characteristic exclusive to aquatic species. The fibers of the skate electric organ are embedded in the muscles located lateral to the notochord in the tail. While skate anatomy is similar to other Batoidea, features such as their electric organ and mermaid's purse create clear distinctions. Distinct from their rhomboidal shape is a long fleshy slender tail. In addition to their pectoral fins, skates have a first and second dorsal fin, caudal fin and paired pelvic fins. Also located on the dorsal side of the skate are their two eyes which allow for predator awareness. Skate's gill slits are located ventrally as well, but dorsal spiracles allow the skate to be partially buried in floor sediment and still complete respiratory exchange. Their mouths are located on the underside of the body, with a jaw suspension common to Batoids known as euhyostyly. Placoid scales have a pointed tip that is oriented caudally and are homologous to teeth. A large portion of the skate's dorsal body is covered by rough skin made of placoid scales. Skates are cartilaginous fishes like other Chondrichthyes, however, skates, like rays and other Rajiformes, have a flat body shape with flat pectoral fins that extend the length of their body. Description General Batoidea characteristics There are at least 45 dubious species of skates worldwide. However, there is little information about the diets of about 24% of these species. There are 13 genera and about 245 valid species. The Rajidae are considered monophyletic because of their similarity in appearance. Five scientists take credit for the rapid increase of findings. Since 1950, 126 new species of skates have been discovered. Skates have more valid species (574) than any other group of cartilaginous fishes. There are 17 genera recognized in the family Rajidae: The number of species is likely to increase as taxonomic issues are resolved and new species are identified. Skates are the most diverse elasmobranch group, comprising over 20% of the known species. Chondrichthyes is divided into two subclasses of which Elasmobranchii includes skates, rays, and sharks. This class consists of all the cartilaginous fishes, including sharks and stingrays. The skate belongs to the class Chondrichthyes. This clade is represented today by sharks, sawfish, rays and skates. A clade within this diverse family, the Neoselachii, emerged by the Triassic, with the best-understood neoselachian fossils dating from the Jurassic. Fossil denticles (tooth-like scales in the skin) resembling those of today's chondrichthyans date at least as far back as the Ordovician, with the oldest unambiguous fossils of cartilaginous fish dating from the middle Devonian. Skates belong to the ancient lineage of cartilaginous fishes. Early Eocene fossil stingray Heliobatis radians ![]()

Jhigh idive recorsd5/1/2023 ![]() ![]() I’ve included some stills from the videos because re-watching this event on YouTube today had me completely transfixed. There was incredible athleticism and fearlessness on full display 5 world record setting dives a scary injury and an absolutely incredible dive by Kunze. The 1983 event was an undeniable spectacle. Despite these ‘violations’, Guinness World Records still recognizes Laso Schaller’s jump as the ‘ Highest dive from a high diving board‘. Plus, he did a simple jump without a single vertical 180 turn, which violates the ‘classic’ rules of the sport. He sustained multiple ligament injuries and he too was pulled out of the water. In 2015, Laso Schaller jumped from a height of 58.8 meters (192.91 ft) in protective clothing and a helmet. In it, they discuss the longstanding world record and what is considered a ‘true’ high dive, despite other attempts being recognized as higher.įor example, in 1985 Randy Dickison was credited with a higher dive at 53.3 meters (174.8 ft), however he was unable to exit the pool without assistance (after sustaining multiple injuries). ![]() I was unable to find the extent of the injuries Picard suffered but he does appear to still have a Facebook profile, so hopefully he’s okay.ĭer Spiegel has an interesting article on Dana Kunze. If you want to skip to the Picard dive, fast forward to 24:22. You can see it below along with the full 30 minute show. It did not go well, it’s a little hard to watch. So Picard ascended the tower to make his attempt. After all, it was still a world record height. One competitor remained, Pat Picard, who essentially had zero chance of winning after Kunze’s near perfect score, but he wanted to do it anyway. If the competition had finished there it would have been a storybook ending. This dive would become his defining moment. Dana Kunze, who was only 22 years old at the time, was already a world champion and held more records than anyone else in the sport. It’s head and shoulders above the rest in terms of difficulty and execution. The next attempt you’re about to see is astonishing. Oh and the pool is salt water and only 52☏ or 11☌. Every single diver sustained an injury of some sort. The year prior, 5 divers attempted the then world record of 170 ft. ![]() We’re at SeaWorld in San Diego, California where a crowd has gathered to watch 6 daredevils attempt a world record high dive with varying levels of difficulty-and success.Ībsolutely mad. ![]()
