Retrospective Study of Traumatic Intra-Interspecific Interactions in Stranded Cetaceans, Canary Islands

Frontiers in Veterinary Science, 2020
Aggressive encounters involving cetacean species are widely described in the literature. However, detailed pathological studies regarding lesions produced by these encounters are scarce. From January 2000 to December 2017, 540 cetaceans stranded and were

Occurrence and Whistle Characteristics of Small Odontocetes in Two Coastal Regions of the Sea of Japan

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 3, July 2026.
ABSTRACT This study investigated the occurrence and whistle characteristics of small odontocetes in Wakasa Bay and Aso Bay, located in the coastal waters of the Sea of Japan, where ecological data are limited. Passive acoustic monitoring using A‐tag and SoundTrap was conducted from 2022 to 2024, with detections on 8.8% and 12.4% of monitoring days at ...

The Battle of Helminths Deep: Molecular Insights Into Oegopsid Squid Parasites in Aotearoa New Zealand

New Zealand Journal of Zoology, Volume 53, Issue 2, June 2026.
Cephalopods play crucial roles in marine ecosystems due to their diverse and indispensable contributions to trophic webs. However, parasitological research on cephalopods remains limited in Aotearoa New Zealand (NZ), despite the commercial significance of certain squid species and the zoonotic potential of the parasites within them. This study aimed to

Unveiling Patterns in Cetacean Strandings Along Southern Atlantic Iberia: Temporal and Spatial Trends, Seasonality, and Causes of Death

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT We compiled 46 years of cetacean strandings in the Algarve, Portugal, describing temporal–spatial patterns, size–sex structure, and causes of death (COD). We analyzed national records and years with a dedicated regional stranding network (SN) to assess annual/seasonal trends, spatial hotspots, and compare biometrics and COD.

Albicetus oxymycterus, a New Generic Name and Redescription of a Basal Physeteroid (Mammalia, Cetacea) from the Miocene of California, and the Evolution of Body Size in Sperm Whales.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Living sperm whales are represented by only three species (Physeter macrocephalus, Kogia breviceps and Kogia sima), but their fossil record provides evidence of an ecologically diverse array of different forms, including morphologies and body sizes ...

Seeing Through the “Clouds” With Molecular “Eyes”. First eDNA‐Based Detections of Pygmy Sperm Whale (Kogia breviceps) in the Mediterranean Sea

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
For the first time, environmental DNA (eDNA) from the Mediterranean Sea reveals the cryptic presence of the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps). Analysis of 393 samples detected repeated, spatiotemporally structured molecular signals, suggesting a resident population.
