In the United States, this species has been recorded as far north as New Jersey and several strandings have occured in Texas.
Live sightings are almost invariably from deep water.
It remains a poorly known and rarely seen dolphin. Many thanks also to Paul Guris for generously arranging access to these valuable images. Two individuals approaching the boat. This close-up shot shows the identification features nicely. Only Common Dolphin shows a sharper dip below the dorsal fin.
