comments |
Mostly found in saline waters (Ref. 81021). Finless porpoises around Hong Kong can handle rough waters quite well, suggesting that depth is a more important factor than surface conditions. Considered as a resident species and has been observed mostly in southern and eastern waters. Exhibit consistent seasonal shifts in south of Lantau Island. Parturition occurs mainly from November to March (Ref. 127118). Highest frequency of strandings was an average of 11 strandings per year (Ref. 86939). C: Ref. 81021, 84649, 127118; M: Ref. 1394. |
