GENUS Orcaella
| Author: | Gray, 1866. | | Citation: | Cat. Seals Whales Brit. Mus.: 285. | | Type Species: | Orca (Orcaella) brevirostris Owen in Gray, 1866. | | Comments: | We follow Fordyce (1989), Heyning (1989a), and Lint et al. (1990) in including Orcaella in the Delphinidae, not in the Monodontidae as was recently proposed (Barnes et al., 1985; Kasuya, 1973). |
