Using transfer learning with a convolutional neural network to detect African manatee (Trichechus senegalensis) vocalizations [PDF]
JASA Express Letters, 2022 African manatees (Trichechus senegalensis) are vulnerable, understudied, and difficult to detect. Areas where African manatees are found were acoustically sampled and deep learning techniques were used to develop the first African manatee vocalization ...

Vocalizations of wild West Indian manatee vary across subspecies and geographic location
Scientific Reports, 2023 Geographic variation in the vocal behavior of manatees has been reported but is largely unexplored. Vocalizations of wild West Indian manatees (Trichechus manatus) were recorded with hydrophones in Florida from Florida manatees (Trichechus manatus ...

First Description of a Satellite DNA in Manatees’ Centromeric Regions
Frontiers in Genetics, 2021 Trichechus manatus and Trichechus inunguis are the two Sirenia species that occur in the Americas. Despite their increasing extinction risk, many aspects of their biology remain understudied, including the repetitive DNA fraction of their genomes.

Placentation in the Amazonian manatee (Trichechus inunguis) [PDF]
Reproduction, Fertility and Development, 2008 Evidence from several sources supports a close phylogenetic relationship between elephants and sirenians. To explore whether this was reflected in similar placentation, we examined eight delivered placentae from the Amazonian manatee using light microscopy and immunohistochemistry.
