## Customer Reviews

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars







  
  
    The is a fantastic book.
  

*by T***S on Reviewed in the United States on February 23, 2024*

Years ago I saw several beaked whales about 40 miles off Baja California's Magdalena Bay. I tried to identify the species, but failed to do so.  This remarkable book compares the individuals in this mysterious family of marine mammals.  If you enjoy pelagic birding or whale watch trips, buy this fascinating book.

    A nicely written field guide to all known cetacean species
  

*by V***N on Reviewed in the United States on October 17, 2022*

This field guide is similar in scope to "Handbook of Whales, Dolphins, and Porpoises of the World" but it incorporates the naming of the dark-colored Berardius species as Berardius minimus and the description of a new rorqual, the Rice's whale (Balaenoptera ricei), along with mentioning the recognition of the Southern Hemisphere population of Mesoplodon mirus as the new species Mesoplodon eueu in the species account for the True's beaked whale. While less bulky than the other book, this field guide omits comments about the etymology for the common and scientific names of each cetacean species. In particular, the fact that Balaenoptera ricei was originally identified as Balaenoptera edeni before genetic and morphological analysis found it to be a distinct species (I remember that the Omura's whale was once considered a pygmy form of the Eden's/Bryde's Whale before being recognized as a new species).

### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ 5.0 out of 5 stars
