A recent note by Mani (1960) which appeared under the above
title calls for some comments.

noticed near Kalyan lighthouse on 17 July 1959 is a rare sight indeed;
and to my knowledge this appears to be the first such record. The
natural tendency of many of the marine mammals is to sink when
they are killed and that such was not the case with the above speci
men, in spite of its relative freshness, is interesting
