mantas
Winged sea creatures
Mantas is the plural of manta, most often referring to manta rays—large, flat-bodied fish with wing-like pectoral fins that glide through tropical waters.
A manta is also a rough-textured cotton fabric, or a cloak or blanket, particularly in Spanish-speaking contexts: She wrapped herself in a manta against the cold.
