Pavoraja mosaica (common name: mosaic skate) is a species of fish in the Rajidae family. It lives in depths ranging from 300 meters to 450 meters off the northeastern coast of Australia.[1][3] Its maximum size is 27.9 cm (11.0 in) total length.[3]
Pavoraja mosaica is only known from few specimens and nothing is known about its population size or trends. Although it can occur as by-catch, current levels of fishing in its range are unlikely to pose a significant threat.[1]
