Stranding locations of Mycoplasma-positive cetaceans and pinnipeds sampled for a study of molecular detection and characterization of Mycoplasma spp. in marine mammals, Brazil. A) Ceará state, in the northeast region; B) Bahia and Espírito Santo states; C) São Paulo state, in the southeast region. Insets show location of each region in Brazil. Dots indicate single animals that tested Mycoplasma-positive.
