Stingrays do not have legs... some people have been asking because of this video:

http://www.maniacworld.com/dancing-stingray.html

Those seen in the video are called clampers.

Claspers are modifications of the pelvic fins and located on the inner margin of the pelvic fins. They are used to transfer sperm to the female during mating. Females do not have claspers.
