(...) La inspección de los dientes del animal, dientes muy pequeños, comprimidos y espatulados, me demostró que el delfín pertenecía al género Phocaena. Como por otro lado, los ojos se…
Ontogenetic allometry and body composition of harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena, L.) from the western North Atlantic
McLellan, W. A.; Koopman, H. N.; Rommel, S. A.; Read, A. J.; Potter, C. W.; Nicolas, J. R.; Westgate, A. J.; Pabst, D. A.
Journal of Zoology (2002)
North Atlantic harbour porpoises Phocoena phocoena (L.) face considerable energetic challenges, as they are relatively small marine mammals with an intense reproductive schedule and a cold-water habitat. Post-natal growth of…
Sexually dimorphic proportions of the harbour porpoise (Phocoena phocoena) skeleton
Galatius, Anders
Journal of Anatomy (2005)
Sexual differences in growth, allometric growth patterns and skeletal proportions were investigated by linear measurements of skeletal parts on 225 harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) from the inner Danish and adjacent…
Monitoring the movements of harbour porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) with satellite telemetry
Read, A. J.; Westgate, A. J.
Marine Biology (1997)
The movements of nine harbour porpoises, Phocoena phocoena (L.), in the Bay of Fundy and Gulf of Maine were tracked using satellite telemetry. Transmitters were attached to the porpoises in…
