Dear Colleagues We have recently compiled the papers in Endangered Species Research by taxa and thought that list members would be interested in the list below. All should be hotlinked through to the open-access PDF’s at the website but I suspect this may be lost in the listserv process < http://www.int-res.com/journals/esr/esr-home/>. If you would like a copy in word the please don’t hesitate to get in touch. Please diffuse widely. Best Brendan Godley (Editor) ESR articles - Marine Mammals Baker JD, Littnan CL, Johnston DW. 2006.
