(page 121) (...) Miller (1925) and Kellogg (1928) included the true porpoises in the family Delphinidae and did not even grant them subfamily status. However, Slijper (1936) and Fraser and…
Remotely-deployable non-invasive (suction-cup attached) tags to record underwater behavior of cetaceans have recently been developed. How useful these tags are for applications on a broad range of species has yet…
This study presents a detailed seasonal comparison of the abundance and distribution of cetaceans within 100-150 nmi (185-278 km) of the California coast during 1991 and 1992. The results of…
Cephalopod prey were identified from the stomachs of 100 Dall's porpoise (Phocoenoides dalli) incidentally taken by commercial salmon gillnets and research vessels from 1978 to 1982 in the western North…
Concentrations of artificial radionuclide 137Cs and natural radionuclide 40K in Dall's porpoise, Phocoenoides dalli, from the Pacific coast of northern Japan in 1996 are presented. Concentrations of 137Cs in muscle…

Life history parameters were estimated for Dall's porpoise, Phocoenoides dalli, from biological specimens collected in the western Aleutian Islands, during 1981–1987. Of 2,033 males and 3,566 females examined, reproductive data…
(...) Amano and Miyazaki (1996) found a geographic difference in the size of the white flank patch among dalli-type animals and reported that porpoises from the Sea of Japan-Okhotsk population…
Mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) control-region sequences and microsatellite loci length polymorphisms were used to estimate phylogeographical patterns (historical patterns underlying contemporary distribution), intraspecific population structure and gender-biased dispersal of Phocoenoides dalli…
Prevalence of the larval cestode, Phyllobothrium delphini, was estimated from 2,445 Dall's porpoise, Phocoenoides dalli, from the incidental take of the Japanese high seas salmon drift-net fishery in the northwestern…
