Toarcibatis is an extinct genus of rays that lived during the Early Jurassic. It contains four valid species which have been found in Belgium, France, Luxembourg, and Spain.[1] It was originally referred to the family "Archaeobatidae",[1] but the family would eventually be renamed "Toarcibatidae" to conform with ICZN rules..[2]
