On the other hand, L. bonaerensis showed significant affinities with H. travassosi, L. paulistanensis and G. wolffsohni . The former of those parasites is strictly haematophagus, and the other two probably feed facultatively on fluids or on injured skin.

This study showed that B. bonaerensis frozen-thawed spermatozoa have kept SOAF and a comparatively high integrity of male chromosomes. Recently, our co-workers (Amemiya et al . 2004) examined activation of mouse oocytes by microinjected mouse, bull, and B. bonaerensis spermatozoa and showed that the ...
According to them, O. glacialis lived in the pack-ice (at least during the summer) and fed mainly on fish, while the typical form ( O. orca ) foraged in ice-free waters and preyed mainly upon marine mammals, especially Antarctic minke whales ( Balaenoptera bonaerensis ).
