Vision Research, 1971
Abstract Visual pigments from marine cetaceans, as in other mammals, are homogeneous and based on the retinal-l chromophore, but show a wider range in absorption maxima. Maxima range from 497 to 486 nm and for one species to 481 nm, but with less certainty. This distribution correlates best with the dominant hue present in the habitat of each species.

On the revolution of cetacean evolution
Marine Genomics, 2018The order of Cetacea with 88 species including Odontoceti (or toothed whales) and Mysticeti (or baleen whales) is the most specialized and diversified group of mammals. The blue whale with a maximum recorded length of 29.9 m for 173 t of weight is the largest animal known to have ever existed, and any dolphin's brain is most powerful and complex than ...

The ethmoid and presphenoid of cetaceans
Journal of Morphology, 2016ABSTRACTA cribriform plate, a perpendicular plate, and two lateral masses are major components of the ethmoid bone of mammals. Notwithstanding the noticeable bone, virtually sitting in the center of the skull, extensive modifications of the skull of modern cetaceans, especially odontocetes (toothed whales), and the lack of clarity as to what ...

Marine Policy, 2019
The South China Sea (SCS) is known to support diverse cetacean species, yet their stranding information has not been well documented. To fill this knowledge gap, available records on cetacean stranding around Hainan Island in the SCS from 1978 to 2016 ...
