Marine biodiversity review of the Arafura and Timor Seas

Based on sighting information in Indonesia (including anecdotal records) there are an estimated 31 or more species of whales and dolphins in the Indonesian Seas. Several rare and endangered and vulnerable "great whale" species, including the sperm and blue whales, as well as other baleen whales are sighted regularly in the eastern waters of this vast archipelago. However, despite the numerous and major advances in marine science in Australasia, the lack of information on the ecology and conservation status of whales and dolphins is one of the largest knowledge gaps concerning the marine biology of this exceptionally diverse part of the world. All of lndonesias whale and dolphin populations are data-deficient, and to variable degrees vulnerable to the regions largely unchecked marine resource exploitation.
