COCCIDIOIDOMYCOSIS IN A CALIFORNIA SEA LION (Zalophus californianus)
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1976Coccidioidomycosis in an adult male California sea lion (Zalophus californianus) is described. The animal was housed in a zoo in Tucson, Arizona, for approximately 5 years. This is believed to be the first reported case of coccidioidomycosis in a marine mammal.

Dental Pathology of the California Sea Lion (Zalophus californianus)
Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2014Skulls from 1,085 California sea lions (Zalophus californianus) were examined macroscopically according to defined criteria. The museum specimens, 61.8% male and 37.3% female, were acquired from strandings and varied in age from juvenile to adult. The majority of teeth were available for examination (95.7%); 3.8% of teeth were artefactually absent, 0.4%

SURVEY OF DISEASES IN FREE-LIVING CALIFORNIA SEA LIONS
Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 1974Fifty-one diseased California sea lions, Zalophus californianus, that stranded on southern California beaches were examined by necropsy. Pneumonia and mucoid bronchiolar obstruction, secondary to infestation with the lungworm Parafilaroides decorus, were the predominant lesions but other findings are presented.

Chronic Aortitis in the California Sea-lion, Zalophus californianus
Nature, 1960DURING a long-term study on the general biology of the California sea-lion, Zalophus californianus (Lesson), it became evident that degenerative diseases associated with ageing are very common in this species. Therefore, a study of the heart and aorta was undertaken.

Verminous Pneumonia in the California Sea Lion (Zalophus californianus)
Pathologia veterinaria, 1970Verminous bronchitis and pneumonia due to Parafiaroides decorus infection is described in California sea lions ( Zalapbus californianus). Marked edema and multiple nodules occurred throughout the lungs. Histologically, both intact and degenerate lungworms occurred and the inflammatory response was pleomophic.

Zalophus californianus (California sea lion)
1975Skin biopsies of the male come from the San Diego Zoo, and that of the female, from the Lincoln Park Zoo, Chicago, Illinois, USA. A male karyotype with identical findings was made available by Drs. R. L. Snyder and D. A. Hungerford as well. The female karyotype is prepared with G-banding and displays bands in the X essentially similar to most mammals.

The corticoids of the adrenal of the California sea lion (Zalophus californianus)
General and Comparative Endocrinology, 1961Abstract Cortisol (F) and corticosterone (B) have been identified as the major products obtained from in vitro incubations of the adrenal tissue from the California sea lion; these occur in a F B ratio of 1.5. In addition, aldosterone has been identified, and two minor steroidal products with the mobility of 11-dehydrocorticosterone and ...

Development of a fatted male phenomenon in California sea lions
Developmental Psychobiology, 1971AbstractA captive colony of male sea lions (Zalophus californianus) living in northern California shows an annual weight fluctuation related to their reproductive season. Seasonal fattening, which is associated with an increase in territorial displays, starts developing at 5 years of age, when a sagittal crest first becomes apparent, and becomes more ...

The development of the pulmonary surfactant system in California sea lions
Comparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2005Pulmonary surfactant has previously been shown to change during development, both in composition and function. Adult pinnipeds, unlike adult terrestrial mammals, have an altered lung physiology to cope with the high pressures associated with deep diving.

Color vision in the California sea lion (Zalophus californianus)
Vision Research, 1992Three California sea lions were trained to discriminate between a colored stimulus and two shades of gray in a 3-fold simultaneous choice situation. The colors blue, green and red were tested against shades of gray varying from low to high relative brightness. All animals distinguished blue from gray; two animals also distinguished green from gray; but
