Terranova ceticola n. sp. (Nematoda: Anisakidae) from the dwarf sperm whale; Kogia simus (Owen), in the Gulf of Mexico

open access: yesSystematic Parasitology, 1981
Terranova ceticola n.sp. is described from specimens in the stomachs of an individual dwarf sperm whale, Kogia simus, which stranded on the beach at Biloxi, Mississippi. It is characterized by possessing a single pair of medial preanal papillae, 38 to 40 pairs of lateral preanal papillae, five pairs of postanal papillae, and spicules 1 to 2% of the ...

Records from visual surveys, strandings and eDNA sampling reveal the regular use of Reunion waters by dwarf sperm whales

Advances in Marine Biology
The genus Kogia includes two extant species, the dwarf sperm whale (Kogia sima) and the pygmy sperm whales (K. breviceps). Due to their elusive behavior at the surface, which limits opportunities for observation, they are amongst the least known species of cetaceans and knowledge of their ecology mostly comes from stranded individuals.

The complete amino acid sequence of the major component myoglobin of dwarf sperm whale (Kogia simus).

Biochemistry, 1977
The complete amino acid sequence of the major component myoglobin from the dwarf sperm whale, Kogia simus, was determined by specific cleavage of the protein to obtain large peptides which are readily degraded by the automatic sequenator. Three easily separable peptides were obtained by cleaving the protein at its two methionine residues, and five ...

Movements and Habitat Use of Dwarf and Pygmy Sperm Whales using Remotely-Deployed LIMPET Satellite Tags

2013
Abstract : Dwarf (Kogia sima) and pygmy (K. breviceps) sperm whales are among the least known species of odontocetes, despite their distribution in oceanic waters world-wide. There is some evidence that both species may be at least occasionally impacted by Navy sonar activity (Hohn et al. 2006; Weilgart 2007).

Habitat suitability, occurrence, and behavior of dwarf sperm whales (Kogia sima) off St. Vincent and the Grenadines, Eastern Caribbean

The genus Kogia includes two species that are some of the least known cetacean species around the globe. Here, we investigated the occurrence, behavior, and habitat suitability of dwarf sperm whales (K. sima) off St. Vincent and the Grenadines (Eastern Caribbean).
