Verified. It’s on the table entry for https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tamanend%27s_bottlenose_dolphin

Approved and vetted.

It's official.

The current page contains two [cetacean needed] blocks, one of which is Tamanend's bottlenose dolphin. The other is Deraniyagala's beaked whale.

However, neither of those is the one in the picture, which shows the cetacean in question living in the coastal waters of South America. I believe this is Burmeister's porpoise, which now has a fairly disappointing image attached.
