Abstract

We report the sightings of false killer whales Pseudorca crassidens in the Ligurian Sea in Septem- ber 2020. A list of 45 records from other sightings, bycatching and strandings is presented. This species is classiﬁed as “visitor” in the Mediterranean because of occasional sightings but a lack of breeding records. However, the last sightings in the 2019-2020 with juveniles and calves suggest that this species may reproduce within the Mediterranean. Further studies are needed to improve our knowledge on distribution and movement of the false killer whales.

利古里亚海假虎鲸的出现及地中海记录的回顾

我们报告了2020年9月在利古里亚海发现的伪虎鲸。本文列出了45条其他目击记录、误捕记录和搁浅记录。该物种在地中海被归类为“访客”，因为偶尔会看到，但缺乏繁殖记录。然而，2019-2020年对幼鲸和幼鲸的最后一次观察表明，该物种可能会在地中海繁殖。需要进一步的研究来提高我们对假虎鲸分布和运动的认识。

期刊介绍： Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance. Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
