Records of Kogia breviceps from Texas, with Remarks on Movements and Distribution

Journal of Mammalogy, 1955
Kogia breviceps (Blainville), the pygmy sperm whale, has been recorded repeatedly from the Atlantic Coast of North America (Hobbs, 1885; True, 1885; Allen, 1941, and papers cited therein; Ulmer, 1941; Enders, 1942; Brimley, 1946; Moore, 1953), but to date the only published report from the Gulf of Mexico is that of Moore (1953: 129), based on an adult ...

Population structure of pygmy (Kogia breviceps) and dwarf (Kogia sima) sperm whales in the Southern Hemisphere may reflect foraging ecology and dispersal patterns

2023
Little is known about the biology of pygmy (Kogia breviceps) and dwarf (K. sima) sperm whales as these animals are difficult to observe in the wild. However, both species strand frequently along the South African, Australian and New Zealand coastlines, providing samples for these otherwise inaccessible species.

Influence of mercury and selenium chemistries on the progression of cardiomyopathy in pygmy sperm whales, Kogia breviceps

Chemosphere, 2012
More than half of pygmy sperm whales (Kogia breviceps) that strand exhibit signs of cardiomyopathy (CMP). Many factors may contribute to the development of idiopathic CMP in K. breviceps, including genetics, infectious agents, contaminants, biotoxins, and dietary intake (e.g. selenium, mercury, and pro-oxidants). This study assessed trace elements in K.

Bilateral Polycystic Kidneys and Focal Renal Cystadenoma in a Pygmy Sperm Whale (Kogia breviceps)

Journal of Wildlife Diseases, 2019
An adult male pygmy sperm whale ( Kogia breviceps) stranded alive at a beach in Florida, US, in 2016. Main postmortem examination findings included bilateral multifocal variably sized renal cysts, focal renal cystadenoma, and mild dilation of the renal pelvises. The role of these renal lesions in the stranding of this whale is unknown.
