Records of Isistius sp. (Elasmobranchii: Squaliformes: Dalatiidae), from the Azores archipelago, inferred by fresh bite marks in dolphins [PDF]
The marine waters around the Azores archipelago have been studied for quite a long time. Deeper areas, however, were historically poorly accessible and only now previously unreported species are recorded regularly.

Applying the Ecological Trap Concept to Cetaceans
ABSTRACT Wild animals may select poor‐quality habitats due to mismatches between perceived and actual habitat quality, creating ecological traps. Although well explored in terrestrial systems, this concept remains underutilized for marine species.

ABSTRACT Modeling a species' ecology and abundance provides important insights into its habitat preferences, population trends, and distribution. Here, we studied how environmental factors relate to common dolphin (Delphinus delphis) density in waters off mainland Portugal.

DELMOGES. DELphinus MOuvements GEStion [PDF]
Depuis les années 1990, la France connaît régulièrement des épisodes de mortalités importantes de dauphins, qui entraînent des pics d’échouages sur le littoral Atlantique en hiver. Depuis 2016, les échouages de petits cétacés dans le golfe de Gascogne présentant des traces de capture, atteignent des niveaux inédits.

Quiet Signals of Burmeister's Porpoises (Phocoena spinipinnis) Recorded in Chile and Peru
ABSTRACT Burmeister's porpoises are cryptic and challenging to detect visually. More information on their acoustic signals could facilitate the use of passive acoustic monitoring (PAM) and help to better understand their ecology. Here, clicks were recorded from two different Burmeister's porpoise populations, one in Chile and the other in Peru, using a
