Morphology of the Tympano‐Periotic Complex in Stranded Odontocetes in Northeast Brazil
Journal of Morphology, Volume 286, Issue 10, October 2025.This study presents the morphological and morphometric characterization of the tympano‐periotic complex (TPC) in six odontocete species stranded along the northeastern coast of Brazil. A total of 57 TPCs were analyzed, revealing interspecific differences in key anatomical features and supporting taxonomic differentiation.

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 41, Issue 4, October 2025.ABSTRACT Fraser's dolphin ( Lagenodelphis hosei ) is one of the least studied dolphin species due to its tropical, offshore distribution and low density. However, it is frequently observed in the Lesser Antilles, where we characterized its distribution and ecology using 4 years of data collected from Grenada to Anguilla.

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.This study evaluates the effectiveness of environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding for monitoring marine mammals in tropical waters around Réunion Island. By combining visual surveys with eDNA sampling and reverse particle drift modeling, we show that eDNA captures local cetacean presence and offers additional spatial insight when integrated with ...

A computational framework to characterize and compare the tonal repertoires of toothed whales
Methods in Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 7, Page 1350-1368, July 2025.Abstract Toothed whales, despite being one of the most acoustically specialized lineages of vertebrates, lack detailed vocal repertoire characterizations comparable to those of songbirds and primates. Current descriptions often lack standardization, limiting interspecies and intraspecies comparisons critical for understanding the contribution of ...

New Zealand Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, Volume 59, Issue 2, Page 398-417, June 2025.ABSTRACT Despite frequently stranding, little is known about free‐ranging long‐finned pilot whales (Globicephala melas edwardii) in Aotearoa/New Zealand. This study used long‐term data to determine the occurrence, seasonal site‐fidelity, group size distribution and individual identity of pilot whales off the east coast of New Zealand.
