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.

Correcting Lipid Extraction Effects on Nitrogen Isotopic Values (δ15N) in Cetacean Skin

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 2, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Stable isotopes of carbon (δ13C) and nitrogen (δ15N) are widely used to study the feeding ecology of cetaceans, as they provide critical insights into diet and migratory behaviors. Lipids in tissues may bias the interpretation of δ13C. Because of this, lipids need to be extracted before measuring stable isotope ratios, but their removal may ...

Sur deux os de Jubarte (Mammalia, Mysticeti)

, 1970
L'omoplate et la vertèbre d'un grand Cétacé actuel ont été trouvées fortuitement grâce à un article de la presse locale. Leur étude détaillée montre qu'elles appartiennent à un Mégaptère, mysticète dont l'ostéologie est peu connue et qui est très rare ...

Marine Mammals in the Anthropocene: Developing a Systematic Evidence Base of Threats to Nineteen Species

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
Marine mammals are vulnerable to a variety of anthropogenic threats, yet a global systematic map of the literature for 19 species found both spatial and temporal disparity in research effort between threats and between species. There are knowledge gaps for species and threats, with effort unequal across many species' ranges.

Baleen whale microsatellite panel for individual identification and parentage assignment in Mysticeti

Global Ecology and Conservation
Highly polymorphic single tandem repeat loci (STR, also known as microsatellite loci) remain a familiar, cost efficient class of genetic markers in genetic studies in ecology, behavior and conservation.

Do Marine Mammals Diversify More Slowly Than Non‐Marine Mammals?

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 53, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Aim Species richness is generally lower in marine than in terrestrial ecosystems, but the reasons behind this disparity remain unclear. This study examines whether marine mammals diversify at a slower pace than their non‐marine counterparts, aiming to shed light on the factors explaining potential diversification differences among them ...

Herpetocetine (Cetacea: Mysticeti) dentaries from the Upper Miocene Santa Margarita Sandstone of Central California [PDF]

, 2011
Two fossil baleen whale (Mysticeti) dentaries from the Upper Miocene (10–12 Ma) Santa Margarita Sandstone of Central California preserve several distinct features similar to the enigmatic herpetocetine whale Herpetocetus.
