Transmission beam pattern and dynamics of a spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris).

Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2019
Toothed whales possess a sophisticated biosonar system by which ultrasonic clicks are projected in a highly directional transmission beam. Beam directivity is an important biosonar characteristic that reduces acoustic clutter and increases the acoustic ...

Towards Integrated Surveillance of Marine Brucellosis: Diagnostic and Phylogenetic Assessment of Brucella ceti in Stranded Dolphins of the Western Mediterranean Sea

Transboundary and Emerging Diseases, Volume 2026, Issue 1, 2026.
Reports of brucellosis in free‐ranging cetaceans are increasing worldwide, particularly in the Mediterranean Sea. To enhance diagnostic accuracy and epidemiological understanding of cetacean brucellosis in the Western Mediterranean Sea, we analyzed bacteriological, serological, and molecular data from 30 cetaceans belonging to three different species ...

Mercury concentrations in the tissues of bottlenose dolphins (Tursiops truncatus) and striped dolphins (Stenella coeruloalba) stranded on the Croatian Adriatic coast

, 2018
The concentrations of total mercury in muscle (17 samples), liver (16 samples) and kidney tissues (16 samples) of both bottlenose (Tursiops truncatus) and striped dolphins (Stenella coeruloalba) were analyzed by cold vapour atomic absorption (AA ...

Testing mitochondrial sequences and anonymous nuclear markers for phylogeny reconstruction in a rapidly radiating group: molecular systematics of the Delphininae (Cetacea: Odontoceti: Delphinidae)

BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2009
Background Many molecular phylogenetic analyses rely on DNA sequence data obtained from single or multiple loci, particularly mitochondrial DNA loci. However, phylogenies for taxa that have undergone recent, rapid radiation events often remain unresolved.

A first assessment of operator compliance and dolphin behavioural responses during swim-with-dolphin programs for three species of Delphinids in the Azores [PDF]

, 2019
The popularity of swim-with wild dolphin programs around the world is fast growing, with the studies required to investigate their impact lagging behind. In the Azores, species targeted include the short-beaked common (Delphinus delphis), the bottlenose (

A highly polymorphic insertion in the Y-chromosome amelogenin gene can be used for evolutionary biology, population genetics and sexing in and [PDF]

, 2008
Background The early radiation of the Cetartiodactyla is complex, and unambiguous molecular characters are needed to clarify the positions of hippotamuses, camels and pigs relative to the remaining taxa (Cetacea and Ruminantia).

Niche sharing reflects a poorly understood biodiversity phenomenon [PDF]

, 2009
Eucalyptus spp. are susceptible to a large number of foliar pathogens, some of which can cause serious defoliation and die-back. In this study, a single leaf spot on a Eucalyptus leaf collected in Madagascar revealed an unusual association of microfungi ...

Mediterranean Gate Sanctuary for the Protection of Cetaceans

Aquatic Conservation: Marine and Freshwater Ecosystems, Volume 35, Issue 12, December 2025.
ABSTRACT The Alboran Sea, located at the western Mediterranean Sea, hosts a diverse and ecologically important cetacean community, including endangered species. However, current marine protected areas (MPAs) in the region are limited in scope, and existing conservation strategies are insufficient to address the wide‐ranging ecological needs of ...
