Finally nice to see this species published, as it’s been speculated to be a new species for almost a decade now

I think Jon already split this out, LOL. I tried for it last year but got there a week before the dolphin watching boats started going out.
No luck on the ferry.
I was in Melbourne some time ago at a conference (one of the describers presented there actually) the post conference field trip took in some coastal spots where the dolphin was possible, but no luck. All the more reason to visit Australia again!
