Data correction 2/8/11: Records with LETU sightings were incorrectly associated with Softshell turtles (ITIS TSN: 173845) and was corrected as leatherback sea turtles (ITIS TSN: 173843) Scope Themes: Biology > Mammals, Biology > Reptiles Keywords: Marine/Coastal, A, North Atlantic, Balaenoptera acutorostrata Lacépède, 1804, Balaenoptera borealis Lesson, 1828, Balaenoptera musculus (Linnaeus, 1758), Balaenoptera physalus (Linnaeus, 1758), Caretta caretta (Linnaeus, 1758), Delphinus delphis Linnaeus, 1758, Dermochelys coriacea (Vandelli, 1761), Grampus griseus (G.
