mtDNA samples were taken from 101 Dall's porpoises, collected from three regions in the northern Pacific, the Bering Sea, the Aleutians and the Western North Pacific.

Digestion with 11 restriction enzymes yielded 34 distinct restriction site haplotypes.

McMillan & Bermingham (1996) used AMOVA to find a significant difference among the three populations, to which western North Pacific made the greatest contribution.

They concluded that separate management policies should be used for the three populations.
