This document is the third edition of the Killer Whales of Australia – Eastern Catalogue and is the only current identification catalogue for killer whales in Eastern Australia. The catalogue has been made possible through the generous donation of digital and film imagery by researchers and citizen scientists.

We consider this catalogue to be a living document that will be updated as new animals are identified and/or new features appear on existing catalogued animals.
