Flipper development in the Mediterranean striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba) [PDF]

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, 1996
Studies of population biology are scarce in Mediterranean striped dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba) mostly because of the lack of samples. Until now, studies of physical maturity, growth, and development of the flipper bones were not available for this species in the Mediterranean.The osteological features and metric characters of the pectoral limbs of ...

Audiogram of a striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba)

The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 2003
The underwater hearing sensitivity of a striped dolphin was measured in a pool using standard psycho-acoustic techniques. The go/no-go response paradigm and up–down staircase psychometric method were used. Auditory sensitivity was measured by using 12 narrow-band frequency-modulated signals having center frequencies between 0.5 and 160 kHz.

Morbilliviral encephalitis in a striped dolphin Stenella coeruleoalba calf from Italy [PDF]

open access: yesDiseases of Aquatic Organisms, 2011
A free-living, striped dolphin Stenella coeruleoalba calf was stranded on the Latium coast of Italy in November 2009. Significant neuropathological findings included non-suppurative meningoencephalitis, microgliosis, neuronal degeneration, astrocytosis, and occasional multinucleate syncytia.

Systemic Herpesvirus and Morbillivirus Co-Infection in a Striped Dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba)

Journal of Comparative Pathology, 2012
During 2007 a dolphin morbillivirus epizootic affected the western Mediterranean and several striped dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba) stranded on the Catalonian coasts. One of those animals had severe lymphoid depletion, necrosis and syncytial formation in lymph nodes and spleen, with large basophilic nuclear inclusions compatible with herpesvirus ...

A histological and NMR study of the melon of the striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba)

Chemistry and Physics of Lipids, 2005
The melon, the echolocation organ of the striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba), was investigated by morphological and high-resolution (13)C nuclear magnetic resonance (NMR) methods, in order to characterize structure and composition gradient at the histological and molecular level.

Trace elements in striped dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba) from the western Mediterranean

Environmental Pollution, 1998
Tissues obtained from Stenella coeruleoalba stranded along the Spanish and Italian Mediterranean coasts from 1987 to 1994 were analysed for cadmium (Cd), copper (Cu), mercury (Hg), selenium (Se) and zinc (Zn). The age, length and weight of the dolphins were recorded.

Evidence for chronic morbillivirus infection in the Mediterranean striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba)

Veterinary Microbiology, 1995
In the summer of 1990 an epizootic infection caused by a morbillivirus (DMV) killed several thousand striped dolphins (Stenella coeruleoalba) in the Mediterranean Sea. In 1991 and 1992 the epizootic reached Italian and Greek waters. The infection by DMV in the acute period of the epizootic caused encephalitis, pneumonia and depletion of lymph nodes ...

Merkel cells immunohistochemical study in striped dolphin (Stenella coeruleoalba) skin

Tissue and Cell, 2019
Cetacean mechanical senses, such as hearing, echolocation, active touch and the perception of water movements, are essential for their survival. Dolphins skin possesses dense packing of dermal papillae associated with the cutaneous ridges that suggests a sensory function, furthermore they are well innervated and very sensitive to touch.

Changes in the occurrence of common dolphins, striped dolphins and harbour porpoises in the English Channel and Bay of Biscay

Journal of the Marine Biological Association of the United Kingdom, 2008
Regular monitoring of the status of cetacean populations is essential for conservation, policy and management. By using a passenger ferry as a scientific research platform, this study provides information on seasonal, annual and longer-term changes in the occurrence of three cetacean species along a relatively fixed transect through the English Channel
