The Manta Catalog consists of a series of images and sighting information for individual mantas that have been seen at Flower Garden Banks National Marine Sanctuary or nearby banks.
Each manta ray has been placed in a category depending on its unique underbelly markings. However, some manta rays' markings might be interpreted differently by different people, so be sure to look at all of the preview images to find the manta you are trying to identify.
This page includes additional images of mantas M54, M55, and M58, including larger versions of the images from the Spots and Squares preview page. These mantas have both spots and square-like blotches on their undersides.
Sightings and additional observations about these animals are also noted on this page.
