DEN NYA MANTAN<br />
<br />
Vid putsarstationen Manta Ridge i Raja Ampat samlas dagligen revmantor, Mobula alfredi, för att få sin skönhetsbehandling. 2009 insåg forskarvärlden att världens jättemantor inte alls bara är en enda art utan i själva verket två: jättemantorna, Mobula birostris, och revmantorna, Mobula alfredi, som på bilden här.<br />
<br />
THE NEW MANTA<br />
At the cleaning station Manta Ridge in Raja Ampat, reef mantas, Mobula alfredi, gather daily to receive their beauty treatment. In 2009, the world's researchers realized that the world's manta rays are not just one species, but in fact two: the giant oceanic manta rays, Mobula birostris, and the reef manta rays, Mobula alfredi, shown in this image.

SVARTA MANTOR. Mantorna är världens största rockor och lever av att filtrera fram plankton, havets allra minsta invånare. Raja Ampat är världens bästa ställe att se svarta mantor, så kallade melanistiska individer, som revmantan på bilden. De utgör mer än en tredjedel av mantapopulationen här.<br />
<br />
BLACK MANTAS. The manta rays are the world's largest rays feed by filtering plankton, the sea's smallest inhabitants. Raja Ampat is the world's best place to see the black mantas, so-called melanistic individuals, like the reef manta in the picture. They make up for more than a third of the manta population here.
