Genetic variability and differentiation of three families containing 12 species of toothed whales mainly from the sea around Japan have been examined by starch-gel electrophoresis at 19 genetic loci encoding…
Little work has been done on the smaller cetaceans of Tierra del Fuego. Data on strandings and new specimens for the following 14 species is presented: Lagenorhynchus australis, Cephalorhynchus commersonii,…
The seasonal and annual fluctuation of the sperm whale, Baird's beaked whale, killer whale, the globicephalids, and the dolphins and porpoises in the past 11 years are discussed. The sperm…
This field guide is designed to permit observers to identify the cetaceans (whales, dolphins, and porpoises) they see in the waters of the eastern North Pacific, including the Gulf of…
This report summarises the available knowledge on odontocete (toothed whale) distribution, behaviour, migration and threats and was compiled for the Bonn Secretariat of CMS.
