       @Miaourt Since sharks and rays take in water through their spiracles and direct it to their gills, I can certainly understand why you’d see this that way... and, it's also interesting that the spiracle is absent in extant lungfish.

       @Miaourt I think the thing bobbing around behind the ray's eyes is the most famous example.https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spiracle_(vertebrates)

       @deltelta Oh, I meant the "extant" word.But after some digging managed to get the "Extant is the opposite of the word extinct." lol
