摘要: ABSTRACT In this study we (1) synthesized 65 yr of odontocete stranding data around the main Hawaiian Islands (1937–2002); (2) analyzed patterns and trends over time; (3) compared occurrence based on sightings live animals with evaluated compatibility these sets. From 1937 to 2002, 202 strandings were recorded by National Marine Fisheries Service, Pacific Regional Office. Strandings increased through time due reporting effort occurred throughout year. The four most common 16 species reported Kogia spp. (18%), spinner dolphins (Stenella longirostris) (15%), striped coeruleoalba) (11%), sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) (10%). highest proportion was O‘ahu (48%), followed Maui/Lāna‘i (24%), Kaua‘i (12%), Hawai‘i Moloka‘i (5%). Comparison previously published animal survey studies suggests that records are a...
