Spathobatis (from Greek: σπᾰ́θη spáthē, 'blade' and Greek: βατίς batis 'ray') is an extinct genus of ray from the Jurassic period of Europe. Spathobatis had a body similar to that of a modern guitarfish, being highly flattened and widened, specializing the creature for a life on the ocean floor. Although it is one of the earliest known fossil rays, it already resembled modern forms in a number of ways. Like them, its eyes and spiracles were located atop the head, its mouth and gill slits were positioned on the underside of the body, and it had greatly expanded pectoral fins for swimming.

- Spathobathis är ett utdött släkte av rockor från juraperioden i Europa. Spathobathis hade en kropp som liknar dagens hajrockor, den var mycket bred och platt vilket gjorde den anpassad för havsbottnen. Trots att den är en av de tidigaste fossilen av rockor, så är den mycket lik dagens rockor. Tex dess ögon och spirakelöppningarna befinner sig ovanpå huvudet, dess mun och gälar befinner sig på undersidan av kroppen. och bröstfenorna har expanderade enormt för att kunna simma. . (sv)

Like them, its eyes and spiracles were located atop the head, its mouth and gill slits were positioned on the underside of the body, and it had greatly expanded pectoral fins for swimming. Distinctive features of Spathobatis included flattened teeth, suitable for eating shellfish, and an elongated snout that was presumably used to probe for food on the muddy sea floor. (en)

Utmärkande egenskaper hos Spathobathis innefattar tillplattade tänder, anpassade för att äta skaldjur, och ett långsträckt tryne som antagligen användes till att söka efter mat på sandbottnen. (sv)
