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

Occurrence of Brucella ceti in striped dolphins from Italian Seas
PLOS ONE, 2020 Brucella ceti infections have been increasingly reported in cetaceans, although a very limited characterization of Mediterranean Brucella spp. isolates has been previously reported and relatively few data exist about brucellosis among cetaceans in Italy. To address this gap, we studied 8 cases of B.
