簡介: 短肢領航鯨生活在熱帶與亞熱帶附近的溫暖水域中,在太平洋裡,牠們的分布範圍北從日本與加州中部,南至澳洲東北方。牠的特徵是有著圓球型的頭部、結實且修長的身體、背鰭末端略呈圓形,與長肢領航鯨相當類似,其最大的差異在於胸鰭和體長的比例,短肢領航鯨的胸鰭約為體長的14-19﹪,較長肢領航鯨為短,但其並不容易分辨。 古生物學家是由牙齒的數目與頭骨的構造特徵來作為化石鑑定的依據,大致來說它的上下頜各有著七到九對的牙齒。而在台灣,漁民曾經在台灣海峽澎湖海溝附近的海域,撈獲短肢領航鯨化石的紀錄。 |

In the Pacific Ocean, they can be distributed as north as Japan and Central California, and as south as northeastern Australia . They are characterized by their bulbous skulls, slim and fit bodies, slightly rounded dorsal fins, similar to that of the long-finned pilot whales. The longest difference between the two species is the ratio between the pectoral fins and the body length; the pectoral fins of the shot-finned whales are about 14-19% of their body lengths, shorter than the long-finned pilot whales. However, it is still not easy to identify one species from another. Paleontologists identify the fossils according to the numbers of teeth and their cranial structures. Generally speaking, the upper and lower jaws of these whales have 7 to 9 pairs of teeth. Here in Taiwan , there have been records of short-finned whale fossils recovered by fishermen in the waters near the Penghu Trench of the Taiwan Strait . " |
