Life History of the Sea-Lions on the California Coast

Rowley J. 1929. Life History of the Sea-Lions on the California Coast. Journal of Mammalogy. 10(1):1-36

A description of sea lion biology and ecology from 1929. Although it was well known to earlier writers that two species of sea-lions were found commonly on the coast of California, namely, the Steller's sea-lion, Eumetopias stelleril (Lesson), and the smaller California, or black, sea-lion, Zalophus californianus (Lesson), considerable confusion existed among some of them as to the species and distribution of the animals inhabiting this region and consequently their descriptions have not been entirely satisfactory nor trustworthy.
