Dear All, Apologies for cross posting.
We would like to inform you that the new paper on first sighting of false killer whales in the northern Aegean Sea has been published in the J. Black Sea/Mediterranean Environment. The pdf copy is available online via the following link. Dede, A., Tonay, A.M., Gönülal, O., Öztürk A.A. 2020. First sighting of false killer whales (Pseudorca crassidens) in the northern Aegean Sea. Journal of the Black Sea/Mediterranean Environment 26 (1): 106-111. http://blackmeditjournal.org/volumes-archive/vol-26-2020/vol-26-2020-no-1/fi rst-sighting-of-false-killer-whales-pseudorca-crassidens-in-the-northern-aeg ean-sea/ Abstract A sighting of a group of false killer whale (Pseudorca crassidens) was reported for the first time in the northern Aegean Sea. It was also the first reported sighting in 25 years for the Aegean Sea. Eight individuals in total were recorded in a footage taken by a local fisherman. During the hauling of the handline, it was observed that one juvenile came to the line to play with it. The information of such sightings of rare species is valuable to understand the regional biodiversity. Alternatively, pdf requests can be sent to [email protected] Regards Arda Arda M.
