Description

Several specimens of Steller's sea-cow (Hydrodamals gigas) have been collected from the North Pacific region. These are, however, not enough to investigate intraspecific variation. As a result of study of the specimens newly found from the Bering Island and those kept at the Nikol'skoye Museum in the island, the author confirmed that all of the characters used in the cladistic analysis by Furusawa (1988) exhibit few variation among specimens and are appropriate for phylogenetic analysis.
