The franciscana dolphin (Pontoporia blainvillei) is a small coastal dolphin endemic to the south-western Atlantic ocean. Incidental captures in fishing gillnets is possibly the greatest conservation concern for this ...
Isolation and characterization of microsatellite DNA markers for spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris)
(Springer, 2008-01-01)
Practically no studies on the population genetics of the spinner dolphin (Stenella longirostris) exist. Seventeen pairs of DNA primers, cloned from an Mbo I digestion of S. longirostris liver DNA, were selected from a total ...

Sequential foraging of dusky dolphins with an inspection of their prey distribution
(Wiley Blackwell Publishing, Inc, 2013-10-01)
The aim of this work was to analyze the sequential foraging behavior of dusky dolphins (Lagenorhynchus obscurus). Foraging sequences were defined when more than two feeding bouts occur with a traveling bout between them. ...
