	River dolphin - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		In the most recent classification (Rice, 1998) there are four families that make up the river dolphins.
		Platanistidae is listed as the only extant family of the Platanistoidea superfamily.
		The previously accepted classification treated all four families as belonging to this superfamily and treated the Ganges and Indus River Dolphins as separate species.

		All forms show a distortion of the anterior portion of the skull, which in some reaches a high degree.
		Noteworthy living members of this group are Platanista of the Ganges which is entirely fluvatile in its habits, never going into salt water, and Pontoporia of the South American coast which is found near the mouth of the La Plata river but has never been found in the fresh water of the river.
		This last form serves as a connecting link in habits between the PLATANISTIDAE and the succeeding family which is confined to salt water.
