  • Ship Strikes of Whales Off the U.S. West Coast
    Ship Strikes of Whales Off the U.S. West Coast Photo © John Calambokidis by John Calambokidis proportion of deaths attributable to ship Cascadia Research strikes (see Figure 1). In the last 10 years, ship strikes have become a major cause of Ship strikes of whales have become of death and account for about a third of the growing concern for several species. This standings. This proportion is even higher has probably received the most attention if gray whales are not included (they have off the U.S. east coast where concern over a lower incidence of ship strikes than ship strikes to the highly endangered North fin or blue whales). The fact ship strike Atlantic right whale was shown to be a deaths have increased as a proportion of all threat to their recovery. This prompted deaths indicates this is not just the result action to shift the shipping lanes of ships of growing whale populations (though this coming through the Gulf of Maine to avoid can be a contributing factor). In the Pacific areas of known right whale concentration. Northwest, the potential seriousness of this issue and how it was increasing was driven The risk of ship strikes, however, is not home in 2002 when four fin whales were just a concern for right whales on the documented or suspected to have been east coast. A worldwide increase in ship killed by ships. strikes has raised concern for some of the larger Balaenopterid whales, like Off California it took a similar dramatic blue and fin whales. There have been set of events to galvanize researchers, increased incidences of ship strikes based conservationists, and managers.

Accumulations of fossils of the whale barnacle Coronula bifida Bronn, 1831 (Thoracica: Coronulidae) provides evidence of a late Pliocene cetacean migration route through the Straits of Taiwan. Zool Stud 57:54. doi:10.6620/ZS.2018.57-54. John Stewart Buckeridge, Benny K.K. Chan, and Shih-Wei Lee (2018) This paper describes a remarkably prolific accumulation of the whale barnacle Coronula bifida Bronn, 1831 in sediments of late Pliocene to earliest Pleistocene age from central Taiwan. Extant Coronula is host-specific to baleen whales; as such, this accumulation of Coronula fossils represents a site where cetaceans congregated during the Plio-Pleistocene - perhaps for breeding. Although whale bones are found at the site, they are rare and fragmentary; the relatively robust shells of Coronula are thus a useful proxy for establishing ancient cetacean migration routes. Key words: Coronula bifida, Whale barnacles, Plio-Pleistocene, Fossil, Taiwan. BACKGROUND thousands of gray whales migrate to over the December - February period each year (Ross and The whale barnacle Coronula Lamarck, Emerson 1974: 47; Fertl and Newman 2009).

We are pleased to have you as a volunteer Museum Whaler for the San Diego Natural History Museum. As a Museum Whaler you are carrying on a long tradition of whale watching here in southern California. Our first trips were offered to the public in 1957. These trips were led by pioneer whale watching naturalist Ray Gilmore, an employee of the U.S. Fish & Wildlife Service and a research associate of the San Diego Natural History Museum. Ray’s whale-watching trips became well known over the years and integrated science and education with a lot of fun. We are sure that Ray would be very pleased with the San Diego Natural History Museum’s continued involvement in offering fun and educational whale watching experiences to the public through our connection with Hornblower Cruises and Events.

A specimen of Cetopirus complanatus dating from the 10th century A.D. is described from archaeologi­ cal excavations at Tiel, the Netherlands. Two vertebral parts of northern right whales Eubalaena glacialis: a vertebral arch and an epiphysis, were also found, possibly dating from the same period. The disc­like epiphysis had been used as a cutting board. The specimens probably had reached Tiel through early trade in whale products. Cetopirus complanatus is only known from right whales of the genus Eubalaena. It has not been found in the Northern Hemisphere since the late 19th century. Its host species in the North Atlantic and North Pacific, E. glacialis, is now very rare as a result of wha­ ling. Introduction During archaeological excavations in the town centre of Tiel, province of Gelder­ land, the Netherlands, some animal remains were found dating from the 10th century A.D.

ABSTRACT - A large complete wall of the whale barnacle Coronula diadema (Linnaeus, 1767) occurring in early Pleistocene (Calabrian) mudstones near Riparbella (Tuscany, Italy) is described. Sedimentary facies analysis indicates that these deposits represent an open shelf setting, similar to many of those reported for whale fossils to date. The extant and fossil record of C. diadema and other species belonging to the genus and family are revised herein. The study confirms a global distribution forC. diadema and dates its presence in the Mediterranean from the early Pleistocene (Calabrian). A global distribution is attributed to the only other well-known fossil coronulid, Coronula bifida Bronn, 1831, which is common within the Pliocene record of the Mediterranean, and is documented in the Pliocene of the Pacific domain and in the earliest Pleistocene of the Atlantic [as C.

  • Paleontological Studies of Whale Barnacles in Taiwan Reveal New Cetacean Migration Routes in the Western Pacific Since the Miocene

They are part of the material studied and figured by Ichiro Hayasaka in 1934.After examination of the material, which includes two cut-sections and one slice, the taxonomic assignment is revised to Coronula bifida Bronn, 1831. A petrographic study of the surrounding matrix shows that the matrix lacks slate and lithic fragments, indicating that the specimen was deposited in the pre-collision settings during the Miocene to early Pliocene. Figured specimens in Hatai’s work in 1939 were examined for comparison. The distribution record of Coronula fossils shows that whales passed through the Taiwan Strait to Okinawa and moved northwards via the Pacific coast of Honshu or entered into the Sea of Japan.The fossil record in this region extends back to the upper Miocene in Yamagata prefecture (facing the Sea of Japan) and Boso Peninsula (facing the Pacific Ocean) in Honshu (~11.2 Ma–5.3 Ma).
