Tucuxi and Costero

Description

EDIT: corrected some typos and added the measurements

I first only wanted to draw the two types of Tucuxis, but later on I decided to turn it into a kind of information page about these little charming phins :) I know, the watermarks might be a bit overdone, but I really don't want these to be taken by anyone. And for those of you wondering: yes, they really can be purple. Here's the proof :aww: cdn1.arkive.org/media/71/71B89… The two pictures are from Google.

I study these animals in Brazil, and is very hard indeed to make the distinction between the two species, since the color variation is very similar and the size is almost the same, but there are subtle things we can notice, as the lighter color pattern of the fluviatilis that is closer to the calfs of guianensis :D
