Torpedo mackayana, commonly known as the ringed torpedo, Western African torpedo, West African torpedo ray, McKay electric ray, or McKay's torpedo ray, is an electric ray species in the family Torpedinidae, which lives in shallow waters on the western coast of Africa. Characterized by rounded spiracles and white and brown spots, females grow to 35–50 centimetres (14–20 in) and males to 31.5–38.2 centimetres (12.4–15.0 in).

Taxonomy Torpedo mackayana was described in 1919 by Jan Metzelaar (1891–1929), a Dutch biologist.

Etymology The fish was named in honor of Donald Jacob Baron Mackay (1839-1921), the then colonial administrator and governor in India; he was one of the promoters of the 1904-1905 expedition that collected the type specimen in the Dutch West Indies.

Description Torpedo mackayana has a round, "fleshy" disc, which has a slightly greater width than length. It has a gray-brown or rusty-brown upperside and a white underside. It is covered with small patches of brown or white. These patches may differ significantly in size and distribution throughout its body. It has a long, strong tail and two dorsal fins. The first dorsal fin is broad, while the second is slightly smaller and more slender.
