Description

The valid specific name of the South American sea lion was controversial for many years since Otaria flavescens (Shaw, 1800) and Otaria byronia (de Blainville, 1820) were the disputing designations. The present database summarizes the use of both names in peer-reviewed papers obtain in Google Scholar for the period 2010-2020.
