Dolphin morbillivirus in a cuvier's beaked whale (Ziphius cavirostris), Italy [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
open12noDolphin morbillivirus (DMV) has caused several mortality events in Mediterranean striped (Stenella coeruleoalba) and bottlenose (Tursiops truncatus) dolphins populations since 19; in the last 5 years, the virus was reported to infect new hosts in

Historical Range Contraction and Extent of Harbour Porpoises (Phocoena phocoena) in the Baltic Sea Revealed by Archival Newspapers

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Archival Swedish newspapers from the 18th to 20th centuries reveal that the Baltic harbour porpoise once utilized the waters along the full Swedish coast, reaching far north into the Gulf of Bothnia, areas where it no longer occurs today. These records show a major range loss and highlight the importance of historical baselines for conservation ...

The claustrum of the bottlenose dolphin Tursiops truncatus (Montagu 1821)

open access: yesFrontiers in Systems Neuroscience, 2014
The mammalian claustrum is involved in processing sensory information from the environment. The claustrum is reciprocally connected to the visual cortex and these projections, at least in carnivores, display a clear retinotopic distribution.

Long-term correlations in the surface behavior of dolphins [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Here we study the sequences of surface behavioral patterns of dolphins (Tursiops sp.) and find long-term correlations. We show that the long-term correlations are not of a trivial nature, i.e.

Genetic and Ecological Divergence Between Northwest Atlantic Killer Whale Populations

open access: yesEcology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 5, May 2026.
Killer whale (Orcinus orca) populations exhibit substantial genetic, ecological, and morphological differences across their global distribution. In this study, we use whole‐genome resequencing and compound‐specific stable isotope analysis of amino acids to show concurrent genetic and ecological differentiation in two relatively understudied killer ...

Fatal Systemic Morbillivirus Infection in Bottlenose Dolphin, Canary Islands, Spain

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
A systemic morbillivirus infection was diagnosed postmortem in a juvenile bottlenose dolphin stranded in the eastern North Atlantic Ocean in 2005. Sequence analysis of a conserved fragment of the morbillivirus phosphoprotein gene indicated that the virus

Marine mammal tourism in the Bay of Plenty, New Zealand : effects, implications and management : a thesis submitted in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Marine Ecology at Massey University, Albany, New Zealand [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Worldwide expansion of marine mammal tourism over recent decades has raised international concerns in terms of the effects of these tourism practices on the species they target.

Ecoacoustics for context‐rich direct and indirect trophic interaction data and ecological network construction

open access: yesMethods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 17, Issue 5, Page 1489-1505, May 2026.
Abstract Understanding species interactions is critical for ecology and conservation, yet conventional network construction methods often lack spatiotemporal resolution and important contextual information. The growing field of ecoacoustics enables remote sensing across large spatiotemporal scales and the monitoring of otherwise cryptic communities ...

The distribution of a rarely encountered stingray, Megatrygon microps, informed by citizen science: A systematic review

open access: yesConservation Science and Practice, Volume 8, Issue 5, May 2026.
This study combines literature and online data sources to expand the smalleye stingray's range, highlight ecological interactions and specific threats. Abstract Many chondrichthyan fishes are experiencing alarming population declines primarily due to overfishing, exacerbated by their inherently vulnerable life history traits including slow growth rates
