Sexual dimorphism in vestigial pelvic bones of Florida manatees (Trichechus manatus latirostris).
Florida Scientist 63(3): 177-181. 2 figs. Summer 2000.
–Examination of 65 male & 64 female pelvic bones showed that dimorphic features develop in ones from animals larger than 225 cm total body length, corresponding with the onset of sexual maturity in males. Those of males increase in size & weight faster than those of females. Pelvic bones of females longer than 300 cm decrease slightly in size & weight.
