Torpedo torpedo {species} - Chordata; Elasmobranchii; Torpediniformes; Torpedinidae; Torpedo;

The common torpedo, ocellate torpedo, or eyed electric ray (Torpedo torpedo) is a species of electric ray in the family Torpedinidae, found in the Mediterranean Sea and the eastern Atlantic Ocean from the Bay of Biscay to Angola. It is a benthic fish typically encountered over soft substrates in fairly shallow, coastal waters. Growing to 60 cm (24 in) long, this species has a nearly circular pectoral fin disc and a short, thick tail with two dorsal fins of nearly equal size and a large caudal fin. It can be identified by the prominent blue spots on its back, which usually number five but may vary from zero to nine, as well as by the small knobs on the rims of its spiracles. For attack and defense, the common torpedo can deliver a strong electric shock of up to 200 volts.
