First record of a live false killer whale Pseudorca crassidens (Owen, 1846) in Cabo Verdean waters
- Despite the limited research on cetaceans in Cabo Verde waters, 23 species have been documented (Hazevoet & Wenzel 2000, Hazevoet et al. 2010, Koenen et al. 2013, Berrow et al. 2015). The presence of several species is known only from strandings, such as the false killer whale, which has beached dead twice on Boavista in the 1980s–1990s, and again in 2007 (Hazevoet et al. 2010, Koenen et al. 2013). This is a CITES species, and Data Deficient according to IUCN (Taylor et al. 2008).
