Effects of sex, age, and season on the variation of blood analytes in a clinically healthy ex situ population of bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops spp.)

open access: yesVeterinary Quarterly, 2020
Background A comprehensive evaluation of the effects of sex, age, and season on blood analytes in a robust population size of ex situ bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops spp.) has not been investigated to date.

Detection of Cetacean Poxvirus in Peruvian Common Bottlenose Dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) Using a Pan-Poxvirus PCR

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Cetacean poxviruses (CePVs) cause ‘tattoo’ skin lesions in small and large cetaceans worldwide. Although the disease has been known for decades, genomic data for these poxviruses are very limited, with the exception of CePV-Tursiops aduncus, which was ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of the critically endangered Atlantic humpback dolphin, Sousa teuszii (Kükenthal, 1892)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2020
The Atlantic humpback dolphin remains an understudied, critically endangered cetacean species. Here, we describe the first complete mitogenome of Sousa teuszii, derived from an animal stranded on Île des Oiseaux, Sine Saloum, Senegal. The S.

Whale phylogeny and rapid radiation events revealed using novel retroposed elements and their flanking sequences

open access: yesBMC Evolutionary Biology, 2011
Background A diversity of hypotheses have been proposed based on both morphological and molecular data to reveal phylogenetic relationships within the order Cetacea (dolphins, porpoises, and whales), and great progress has been made in the past two ...

Toothed Whales Have Black Neurons in the Blue Spot

open access: yesVeterinary Sciences, 2022
Neuromelanin (NM) is a dark polymer pigment that is located mostly in the human substantia nigra, and in the locus ceruleus, referred to as “the blue spot”.

Trophic relationships of the spinner dolphin at Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, SW Atlantic

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2007
We present an overview of predator-prey and other trophic relationships of spinner dolphins (Stenella longirostris) around Fernando de Noronha Archipelago, off northeastern Brazil, with use of original data and a brief review of data published elsewhere.

Steno bredanensis (Cetacea: Delphinidae) [PDF]

open access: yesMammalian Species, 2011
Steno bredanensis (Cuvier in Lesson, 1828) is a small odontocete commonly called the rough-toothed dolphin. A slender, gray dolphin with a slightly darker cape, this species is most easily distinguished from other small delphinids by a gradually sloping forehead and a long rostrum. It is the only species in the genus Steno. Despite reports of sightings

Vertebral osteology in Delphinidae (Cetacea) [PDF]

open access: yesZoological Journal of the Linnean Society, 2004
Vertebral anatomy in delphinid cetaceans exhibits marked heterogeneity. Description and functional interpretation of this variability is facilitated by the recognition of structural units along the column whose boundaries transgress those of the classical mammalian series. Vertebral anatomy of the killer whale (Orcinus orca) and the Atlantic whitesided

Mitogenome phylogenetics: the impact of using single regions and partitioning schemes on topology, substitution rate and divergence time estimation. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2011
The availability of mitochondrial genome sequences is growing as a result of recent technological advances in molecular biology. In phylogenetic analyses, the complete mitogenome is increasingly becoming the marker of choice, usually providing better ...
