ABSTRACT. A new skate, Walteraja exigua gen. et sp. nov., is described from the lowermost Maastrichtian Belemnella lanceolata Zone of Balsvik quarry, Kristianstad Basin, southern Sweden. It is the earliest known skate with a largely modern tooth morphology and the only known pre-Cenozoic rajoid displaying a very marked gynandric heterodonty, comparable to that in many living forms. The occurrence of W. exigua in the basal Maastrichtian at Balsvik coincides with a mass occurrence of the small`deep-water' squaloid shark Proetmopterus hemmooriensis. Most living skates, and virtually all extant squaloids closely related to P. hemmooriensis, inhabit deep and/or cool water environments and do not occur in warm temperate to tropical coastal waters. The Walteraja/Proetmopterus association in a marginal, relatively shallow-water facies of the B. lanceolata Zone adds to other, recently described, unexpected occurrences of Late Cretaceous rajoids and etmopterids/centroscymnids in warm temperate to subtropical shelf environments.

Seventeen demersal fish species collected during a commercial line fishing trip off northern New Zealand are listed together with data on abundance, location, and habitat. These are the first records for the area; 15 are the most northerly records for the species and major range extensions are recorded for Centroscymnus owstoni, Deania calcea, Etmopterus lucifer, Pseudophycis barbata, and Hyperoglyphe antarctica. A prespawning aggregation of ling, Genypterus blacodes, is recorded for the first time from this region.

“…Later, Garrick (1961 described Bathyraja richardsoni from the unique holotype taken from east of Cook Strait at 2400 m depth. In a review of New Zealand rajoids, Garrick & Paul (1974) named two new Bathyraja skates, B. asperula and B. spinifera, and flagged the existence of a third undescribed Bathyraja species based on a newly hatched female. McEachran (1984) described the anatomy of B. asperula and B. spinifera and suggested they formed a monophyletic group consisting of Malacoraja Stehmann, Neoraja McEachran & Compagno, Pavoraja Whitley, and Gurgesiella de Buen.…”
