This is because arrayClass is not the MonoClass of a MonoArray.

You need something like that:

// assign the mono array
uintptr_t byteLength = [self length];
MonoArray *monoArray = mono_array_new(mono_domain_get(), 
mono_get_byte_class(), byteLength);
int32_t elementSize = 
mono_array_element_size(mono_object_get_class((MonoObject*)monoArray);
