==Distribution and habitat==
The Java stingaree has only been found off [[Java]], perhaps in the vicinity of Jakarta. Its exact range, and depth and [[habitat]] preferences, are unknown but probably very restricted.<ref name="iucn status 16 November 2021" />
==Description==
Line 30 ⟶ 29:
==Biology and ecology==
Very little is known of the natural history of the Java stingaree. It is presumably [[aplacental viviparous]] with a small litter size, as in other stingarees.<ref name="iucn status 16 November 2021" />
==Human interactions==
No new Java stingaree specimens have emerged since the first was discovered over 150 years ago, and it is feared to be [[extinct]].<ref name="iucn status 16 November 2021" /> There is heavy fishing activity within its range, as well as [[habitat degradation]] from the proximity of major population centers. While it is possible that captured specimens have gone unrecognized, if this species still survives its population would almost certainly be gravely imperiled, leading the [[International Union for Conservation of Nature]] (IUCN) to assess it as [[Critically Endangered]].<ref name="iucn status 16 November 2021" />
