Dear Marmamers: A short note on the movement of a male killer whale along the southeastern coast of Brazil was recently published. Find complete reference and abstract below.

Brazilian Journal of Oceanography, 57(1): 65-68. ABSTRACT: Killer whales (Orcinus orca) are found in all oceans, but are generally most commonly observed in coastal, temperate waters, especially in areas of high productivity. In the Western South Atlantic, long-term studies on killer whales have been conducted mainly off northern Patagonia, Argentina. The species is poorly known on the Brazilian coast where strandings and opportunistic sightings are the main sources of information. We report four sightings of a male killer whale identified through notches along its dorsal fin from 2005 and 2008, presenting the first observation on a long-distance movement (ca. 550km ) along the southeastern coast of Brazil.
