Description
- Stenella coeruleoalba is the most common cetacean in the Mediterranean Sea. It is gregarious and inhabits pelagic waters. Females attain sexual maturity at about 187 cm and 12 years of age, whereas males do so at about 187 cm and 9 years of age. Until a morbillivirus epizootic affected the Mediterranean striped dolphin, few samples were available to allow reliable studies on its population biology[1][2].
