    The world really is divided into insects, fish, and everything else, and stingrays despite living in the ocean are everything else.

    Skull, some degree of neck, for arms, ribcage, pelvis, legs, and an optional tail. You can take any skeleton and morph it into any other skeleton.

    Snakes, elongate the rib cage shrink everything else. Seriously go look at a snake skeleton, they have itty bitty arms and legs. Evolution literally just scales things up and down, that’s all it does.
