The Raffles Bulletin of Zoology (2002)
Acoustic signals from free-ranging finless porpoises were recorded in the waters around Hong Kong during March 2000. Finless porpoises produced short-duration high-frequency clicks. Signal analysis showed finless porpoise clicks to…

Irrawaddy dolphins Orcaella brevirostris and finless porpoises Neophocaena phocaenoides are referred to as facultative freshwater cetaceans because they occupy both fresh- and nearshore marine waters. In Asia, the especially rapid…
Marine Mammal Sci (2002)
Seven hundred and twenty base pairs (bp) of the mitochondrial control region from 73 finless porpoises, Neophocaena phocaenoides, in Chinese waters were sequenced. Thirteen variable sites were determined and 17…

This study provides information on food habits and insights into habitat use of finless porpoises (Neophocaena phocaenoides) in Hong Kong waters through the analysis of stomach contents of 31 stranded…
Mammalian Species (2004)
(...) Neophocaena phocaenoides is the only member of the family Phocoenidae without a dorsal fin (Fig. I ). In its place is a low, geographically-variable dorsal ridge (sometimes inappropriately called…

This report summarises the available knowledge on odontocete (toothed whale) distribution, behaviour, migration and threats and was compiled for the Bonn Secretariat of CMS.
Marine Pollution Bulletin (2005)
Polybrominated diphenyl ethers (PBDEs) and organochlorine compounds (OCs) were determined in the blubber, liver and kidney of Indo-Pacific humpback dolphins (Sousa chinensis) and finless porpoises (Neophocaena phocaenoides) stranded in Hong…
