Stingray (Bathytoshia brevicaudata?)

Santosa Oceanium Singapore, Open Ocean tank. Screencap from a video shot august 2025.

This tanks holds many different species of stingray. To me, the body shape and white spots point to Bathytoshia brevicaudata but that species isn't listed on ZTL... is it something else perhaps?
I should clarify Bathytoshia brevicaudata (and B. matsubarai, if you consider it distinct) does also have white spotting, but the spots are clustered into two diagonal lines near the centre of the disc, one on each side approximately where the pectoral fins attach to the body. In U. granulatus, the white spots are present all over the disc.
