Abstract
This report provides a summary of cetacean sightings, observations and available datasets for Timor-Leste (2014-2023), with a focus on the SEIO blue whale, Balaenoptera musculus brevicauda, to assist with the IWCs In-depth Assessment of non-Antarctic Southern Hemisphere blue whales, and priority-setting. This report is also intended to inform the scoping of and support for other relevant SEIO blue whale scientific assessments and studies (ie. migration, population abundance, population structure, and Biologically Important Areas).
