N2 - Sotalia dolphins inhabit the Amazon and Orinoco River basins and the Caribbean and Atlantic coasts in Central and South America (Flores and da Silva, 2009). The tucuxi (Sotalia fluviatilis) inhabits the Amazon basin, while the Guiana dolphin (Sotalia guianensis) inhabits the Caribbean and Atlantic coasts of South America, including some estuarine and riverine areas (Borobia et al., 1991). To date, it is unknown what species inhabits the Orinoco basin (Caballero et al., 2007).
