Two new records of Ziphiidae (Cetacea) for the Azores with an updated checklist of cetacean species

Abstract

ABSTRACT: Two standings in 1989 of a Cuvier’s Beaked Whale, Ziphius cavirostris G. Cuvier, 1823, on the Island of Santa Maria, and of a Gervais’ Beaked Whale, Mesoplodon europaeus (Gervais, 1855), on the Island of Faial, represent the first records of these species in the Azores archipelago. Body measurements of both specimens and the skull biometry of M. europaeus are presented. An updated checklist or 22 cetaceans recorded from the Azorean waters is also presented, although the presences of 3 of them are actually dubious.

Os arrojamentos ocorridos em 1989, dum zífio, Ziphius cavirostris G. Cuvier, 1823, na ilha de Santa Maria, e duma baleia de bico-de-Gervais, Mesoplodon europaeus (Gervais, 1855) na ilha do Faial, representam os primeiros registos destas espécies paro o Arquipélago dos Açores. As medidas externas dos dois espécimes e a craniometria de M. europaeus são apresentadas.
