## Abstract Serial sections of 13 embryos and fetuses of the harbor porpoise from 10 mm crownβrump length up to 167 mm total length were studied. Unlike the adult animals, ontogenetic stages of 18β27 mm crownβrump length still show a typical mammalian olfactory bulb. The olfactory bulb primordium i

## Abstract With the transition from terrestrial to aquatic habitats, cetacean forelimbs have undergone significant modifications in bone morphology and soft tissue distribution. Some, but not all, of these modifications are also demonstrated in other lineages of extant and extinct secondarily aqua
A study of the homogeneity between putative stocks of Phocoena phocoena in the North Sea and inner Danish waters was performed using isozyme electrophoresis. Two polymorphic systems, mannose phosphate isomerase (MPI) and phosphoglucomutase (PGM) were used in the analysis. A two-locus homogeneity tes
## Abstract In several publications, it was shown that echolocation sound generation in the nasal (epicranial) complex of toothed whales (Odontoceti) is pneumatically driven. Modern hypotheses consider the larynx and its surrounding musculature to produce the initial air pressure: (a) contraction o
