Abstract
Datos morfométricos de una hembra de Harriotta raleighana capturada en el Golfo de California respaldan la idea de que la especie -para especímenes dentro de cierto ámbito de longitud de cuerpo representa dimorfismo sexual y alometría negativa en la longitud del hocico. Se describen las marcas presentes en el cuerpo del especimen que se supone fueron causadas durante la copulación.References
