Another polymorphic mitochondrial genome of Grampus griseus and phylogeny of family Delphinidae
Risso’s dolphin (Grampus griseus Cuvier, 1812) is the only species of genus Grampus and a cosmopolitan marine inhabitant. Here, we report a polymorphic complete mitochondrial genome of G. griseus.

ABSTRACT False killer whales (Pseudorca crassidens) are globally distributed cetaceans, often found in deep oceanic waters but occasionally near coastlines. Despite their broad distribution, information on their abundance, genetics, and ecology remains limited.

Ethnoecology of small cetaceans: interactions between an artisanal fishery and dolphins in northern Rio de Janeiro, Brazil [PDF]
Studies in northern Rio de Janeiro indicate there are interactions between fisheries and cetaceans, but there are no studies that focus on the knowledge fishermen have about these animals.

How to define a dolphin “group”? Need for consistency and justification based on objective criteria
Group living is a critical component of the ecology of social animals such as delphinids. In many studies on these animals, groups represent sampling units that form the basis of the collection and analysis of data on their abundance, behavior, and ...

Acoustically evoked potentials in two cephalopods inferred using the auditory brainstem response (ABR) approach [PDF]
It is still a matter of debate whether cephalopods can detect sound frequencies above 400 Hz. So far there is no proof for the detection of underwater sound above 400 Hz via a physiological approach.

Avian influenza overview September–November 2025
Abstract Between 6 September and 28 November 2025, 2896 highly pathogenic avian influenza (HPAI) A(H5) virus detections were reported in domestic (442) and wild (2454) birds in 29 countries in Europe. The magnitude and geographical extent of these detections were unprecedented for this time of the year, particularly in wild birds.

Historical Biogeography of Delphininae Dolphins and Related Taxa (Artiodactyla: Delphinidae) [PDF]
Delphinine dolphins arose via a recent, rapid radiation, probably within the last four million years. Although molecular phylogenies are increasingly well resolved, patterns of morphology-ecology-geography are hard to link to phylogeny or to translate into taxonomy.

Differences in the whistle characteristics and repertoire of Bottlenose and Spinner Dolphins
Several methods have been used to compare the whistles produced by dolphins. The two methods used in this study are: (1) a classification of whistle contours in six categories (i.e.
