Mitochondrial Variation of Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) from the Canary Islands Suggests a Key Population for Conservation with High Connectivity within the North-East Atlantic Ocean

Animals
In recent decades, worldwide cetacean species have been protected, but they are still threatened. The bottlenose dolphin (Tursiops truncatus) is a vulnerable keystone species and a useful bioindicator of the health and balance of marine ecosystems in ...

Behavioral Response of Arctocephalus australis to Pedestrian Disturbance During the Breeding Season: Implications for Wildlife Tourism Management

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 4, October 2026.
ABSTRACT The South American fur seal (Arctocephalus australis) breeds in dense colonies along the Peruvian coast, mostly within protected areas managed by the Servicio Nacional de Áreas Naturales Protegidas por el Estado (SERNANP). To support responsible wildlife tourism near breeding sites, we evaluated the behavioral responses to controlled ...

Stable Isotope Composition of Skin Layers Confirms Trophic Differentiation of Baird's and Sato's Beaked Whales (Berardius spp.) in the Western North Pacific

Rapid Communications in Mass Spectrometry, Volume 40, Issue 17, 15 September 2026.
ABSTRACT Rationale Closely related whale species can appear similar yet occupy distinct ecological niches. Sato's beaked whale (Berardius minimus) was only recently recognized as a separate species and was previously grouped with Baird's beaked whale (Berardius bairdii), limiting our understanding of their ecological differences.

Decadal Bowhead Whale Baleen Stable Isotope and Hormone Chronologies (1985–2010) Provide Insight Into Arctic Ecosystem Change

Global Change Biology Communications, Volume 1, Issue 3, September 2026.
Long‐term chronologies constructed from individual bowhead baleen plates reveal stable isotope declines consistent with regional Arctic food web or productivity changes superimposed on global anthropogenic C and N inputs, while relatively stable hormone concentrations over the same period provide no evidence of a concomitant increase in physiological ...

An Update on the Model of Connectivity of the Hippocampal Formation (I): The Perforant Pathway to the Dentate Gyrus

Hippocampus, Volume 36, Issue 5, September 2026.
ABSTRACT The hippocampus participates in crucial functions such as memory consolidation, spatial processing and emotional regulation that require diverse input from multiple cortical areas that is funneled through the upper layers of the entorhinal cortex (EC), mostly from layer II to the dentate gyrus (DG).

First Report on the Diet of the Angolan Flying Squid (Todarodes angolensis) in New Zealand Waters

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 3, September 2026.
The Angolan flying squid (Todarodes angolensis) is a southerly distributed, large‐bodied ommastrephid preyed upon by many large marine vertebrates such as the southern elephant seal and deep‐sea squalid sharks. Here, we report its diet in New Zealand waters for the first time, identifying prey items from the stomach contents of 58 adults using ...

Assessment of marine litter interaction in cetaceans stranded along the Italian coastline and the Adriatic Sea

Frontiers in Marine Science
Marine litter represents a growing threat to marine biodiversity, particularly to cetaceans, yet its impacts on these sentinel species remain insufficiently quantified.
