The broad skate, Amblyraja badia, is a poorly known species of skate in the family Rajidae. It occurs at depths of 846 to 2,324 metres (2,776 to 7,625 ft), and has been observed via ROV by the Monterey Bay Aquarium Research Institute as deep as 3,167 metres (10,390 ft), making it the deepest-occurring skate known. It is sporadically distributed in the Pacific Ocean, from the Gulf of Panama to British Columbia and the Bering Sea, to the "Tohoku Slope" off northern Honshu and the "Okhotsk Slope" off Hokkaido. The species name, badia, comes from the Latin batius meaning "brown", referring to its color.
