A total of 102 separate sightings were recorded. Habitat selection (i e. ,water 2 depth,tidal conditions,and distance offshore)were analyzed by using selection frequency and x -test. The results showed high level of selection for water depth under 20 meters and distance offshore within 1 000 meters,whereas no significant selection was found for tide level,water temperature or tide direction. In addition,for the purpose of providing fundamental information for conservation and man- agement,the utilization of different sections of Xiamen waters was discussed. Furthermore,Xiamen west harbour and waters from Jiyu to Wuyu were identified as the ‘key habitats ’and Dadeng waters may serve as a ‘sanctuary’for the Xiamen population.
