Distribution of Fraser's Dolphins:
A total of 19 confirmed oppotunistic sightings of Fraser's dolphins were recorded over the four field seasons of effort of the leeward coast of Domincia. In addition there were three unconfirmed sightings of this species. The Fraser's dolphin was the second most often sighted of the delphinid species. Figure 6, below, identifies the location and distribution of all Fraser's dolphin sightings across all four field seasons. This species was sighted along the majority of the coast. In one instance, this species was seen in a mixed group with pantropical spotted dolphins.
