Killer Whales (Orcinus orca) in the Indo‐Pacific: A Review of Their Distribution, Population Structure, and Ecology

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 3, September 2026.
This review synthesises knowledge on killer whales across the Indo‐Pacific through the integration of published studies and collaboration. It shows that variation in killer whale occurrence, diet, and fisheries interactions is shaped by environmental heterogeneity and uneven research effort and highlights knowledge gaps with implications for ...

Using Photographs in Fishers’ Ecological Knowledge Research: A Review and Field Study on Small‐Scale Fishers’ Knowledge of Coastal Habitats in the Central Mediterranean Sea

Aquaculture, Fish and Fisheries, Volume 6, Issue 4, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Fishers interact daily with coastal environments, which generate a deep understanding of habitat characteristics, species associations and ecological change. Fishers’ ecological knowledge (FEK) is therefore a critical source of insight for marine science, offering observations that uniquely complement scientific data and, when incorporated ...

Population genetics of species on the genera Tursiops and Delphinus within the Gulf of California and along the western coast of Baja California. [PDF]

, 2011
This present study investigated the evolution of population genetic structure of two closely related cetacean species, bottlenose (Tursiops truncatus) and common dolphins (Delphinus spp.) within the Gulf of California (GC) and along the West Coast of ...

Is Blood Thicker Than Water? The Influence of Kin Within a Bull Shark Social Network

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
This study investigates how kinship (“kinfluence”) shapes social structure in an aggregation of adult bull sharks in Fiji by integrating genomic relatedness, pedigree reconstruction, and detailed behavioral data. It reveals that while genetic relatedness has a small but significant influence on social behavior, especially among males, kin‐category ...

Advancing Amino Acid Isotope‐Inferred Trophic Ecology in an Apex Predator: Insights From a Data‐Rich Killer Whale Population

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.
Amino acid‐specific nitrogen isotope analysis (d15N‐AA) is widely used to infer trophic ecology but remains poorly validated in marine predators. Using a data‐rich killer whale population, we show that diet is the primary driver of nitrogen isotope composition of individual amino acids and of the multivariate isotopic space, with little effect of sex ...

A contribution to the anatomy of two rare cetacean species: The hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica)

The Anatomical Record, Volume 309, Issue 7, Page 1797-1820, July 2026.
Abstract The anatomical description of the hourglass dolphin (Cephalorhynchus cruciger) and the spectacled porpoise (Phocoena dioptrica) remains largely unexplored, due to limited specimen availability and preservation challenges. This study employed digital imaging techniques, conventional histology, and computed tomography to provide visualization of

A Comparison of Bottlenose Dolphin (Tursiops Truncatus), Atlantic Spotted Dolphin (Stenella frontalis), and Pilot Whale (Globicephala Sp.) Vocalizations in the Western North Atlantic and Northern Gulf of Mexico

, 2005
Differences in whistle types between species and populations of dolphins may arise from differences in body size, environmental conditions, geographic separation, and vocal learning between animals.
