Sirenian Sounds
Abstract Extant sirenians are the only aquatic herbivorous mammals and comprise four recognized species: the dugong, the Amazonian manatee, the West Indian manatee, and the African manatee. They inhabit coastal shallow waters in tropical and subtropical areas.Renata S. Sousa-Lima, Juan Carlos Azofeifa-Solano, Vera M. F. da Silva, Giovanna A. Dantas, Isadora M.

Sirenian fossil bones under a sunflower field in Tuscany (Italy)
, 2012 The application of Ground Penetrating Radar (GPR) in vertebrate palaeontology is very rare. We describe the discovery of an Early Pliocene Sirenian skeleton detected by GPR in a
locality near Grosseto (Tuscany, Italy). The specimen represents one of the BINI, MONICA, RIBOLINI, ADRIANO, BIANUCCI, GIOVANNI, Tinelli C, LANDINI, WALTER +4 morecore +1 more sourceValidation of aerial photogrammetry methods to measure body size, condition and mass in small cetaceans

Conservation Biology, Volume 40, Issue 1, February 2026.Abstract
Marine megafauna species are affected by a wide range of anthropogenic threats. To evaluate the risk of such threats, species’ vulnerability to each threat must first be determined. We build on the existing threats classification scheme and ranking system of the International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) Red List of Threatened ...Michelle VanCompernolle, Juliet Morris, Hannah J.

, 1999 Ten fossil odobenid remains, and a fossil sirenian rib, encountered by us in a public and in a private collection since the publication of some earlier papers, are described and discussed. All fossils belong, anatomically, to the axial skeleton.Bree, P.J.H. van, Erdbrink Bosscha, D.P., van Bree, P.J.H., Bree, Peter, Bosscha Erdbrink, D.P. +4 morecore Drivers of Habitat Selection by the Endangered Greater Caribbean Manatee in Coastal‐Marine Ecosystems
Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 36, Issue 1, January 2026.ABSTRACT
Habitat selection is a fundamental aspect of animal movement and behaviour, involving strategies that influence population regulation, species interactions, community structure and the generation and preservation of biodiversity.
