This word comes from the Latin cetus meaning "a large sea animal”, and the Greek word ketos, meaning "sea monster”. - Cetaceans are mammals. - They are warm-blooded (they maintain a constant internal body temperature). - Like other placental mammals, cetaceans give birth to well-developed calves and nurse them with milk from their mammary glands. - Cetaceans have lungs, meaning they breathe air. An individual can last without a breath from a few minutes to over two hours depending on the species. Cetacea are deliberate breathers who must be awake to inhale and exhale.

The study of the Portuguese marine ichthyofauna has a long historical tradition, rooted back in the 18th Century. Here we present an annotated checklist of the marine fishes from Portuguese waters, including the area encompassed by the proposed extension of the Portuguese continental shelf and the Economic Exclusive Zone (EEZ). The list is based on historical literature records and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history collections, together with new revisions and occurrences.

La necessità di aggiornare e implementare il programma è maturata an- che durante il congresso annuale dell’EEA tenutosi a Milano nel 2012 dove è stato presentato il risultato di circa 30 anni di attività. L’importanza che gli squali hanno nell’equilibrio dell’ecosistema marino e la preoccupazione che tutti noi abbiamo per una loro eventuale scompar- sa come predatori apicali, è il motivo principale che ha suggerito e stimo- lato la produzione di questo contributo.
