| Summary: | Delphinus delphis Linnaeus, 1758 —Short-beaked Common Dolphin, saddleback dolphin Delphinus delphis Linnaeus, 1758 p.77; Type locality- eastern North Atlantic (European Seas); Kuroda, 1938 p.15; Won, 1968 p.221; Kim et al ., 2000 p.94; Kim, 2004 p.243. D. pomeegrea Owen, 1866 [1869] p.23; Type locality- India. Range: A school of 100 short-beaked whales was observed once in 2007 in the East Sea (Cetacean Research Institute 2007), but compared to D. capensis , the short-beaked common dolphin is rare in Korean waters (Fig. 104). Remarks: A discontinuity exists in the distribution of the central and northern stocks of the eastern Pacific short-beaked common dolphins (Perrin et al ., 1985) as well as documented differences in average adult size, reproductive seasonality and genetics (Chivers et al . 2003). Records of D. delphis before the 1990s mostly refer to D. capensis in the North Pacific Ocean (Amano 2009a, b). The Subspecies, D . d . delphis Linnaeus, 1758 inhabits the waters of Korea.
