Description:"The current Marine Mammal Protection Act stock assessment report for spinner dolphins within U.S. Exclusive Economic Zone (EEZ) waters of the central and western Pacific Ocean defines only a single stock, which includes the spinner dolphins within the waters of the Hawaiian Archipelago (Carretta et al., 2009) (Fi g. 1). Recent analyses of photo-identification and genetic data indicate the need for a redefinition of the Hawaiian stock of spinner dolphins, as well as the creation of a new stock to include those animals within the U.S. EEZ waters of American Samoa (Fig. 2)"--Introduction.
