Seeing Through the “Clouds” With Molecular “Eyes”. First eDNA‐Based Detections of Pygmy Sperm Whale (Kogia breviceps) in the Mediterranean Sea

Mammal Review, Volume 56, Issue 1, March 2026.
For the first time, environmental DNA (eDNA) from the Mediterranean Sea reveals the cryptic presence of the pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps). Analysis of 393 samples detected repeated, spatiotemporally structured molecular signals, suggesting a resident population.

Albicetus oxymycterus, a New Generic Name and Redescription of a Basal Physeteroid (Mammalia, Cetacea) from the Miocene of California, and the Evolution of Body Size in Sperm Whales.

PLoS ONE, 2015
Living sperm whales are represented by only three species (Physeter macrocephalus, Kogia breviceps and Kogia sima), but their fossil record provides evidence of an ecologically diverse array of different forms, including morphologies and body sizes ...

Melon‐Headed Whale (Peponocephala electra) Occurrence in the Equatorial Mid‐Atlantic Ocean With Descriptions of Their Whistles

Marine Mammal Science, Volume 42, Issue 1, January 2026.
ABSTRACT Acoustic studies for any cetacean species in tropical Atlantic Ocean waters are scarce, especially for oceanic dolphins, such as the melon‐headed whale, Peponocephala electra. Here we describe a unique visual and acoustic record for this species, filling an information gap about the acoustic patterns of these delphinids in this part of the ...

Leveraging Synteny to Generate Reference Genomes for Conservation: Assembling the Genomes of Hector's and Māui Dolphins

Molecular Ecology Resources, Volume 25, Issue 7, October 2025.
ABSTRACT Escalating concern regarding the impacts of reduced genetic diversity on the conservation of endangered species has spurred efforts to obtain chromosome‐level genomes through consortia such as the Vertebrate Genomes Project. However, assembling reference genomes for many threatened species remains challenging due to difficulties obtaining ...

μCeta: A Set of Cetacean‐Specific Primers for Environmental DNA Metabarcoding With Minimal Amplification of Non‐Target Vertebrates

Environmental DNA, Volume 7, Issue 5, September–October 2025.
Cetacean eDNA metabarcoding results from the aquarium pool samples using new cetacean‐specific primers. μCeta shows superior performance to detect and differentiate different cetacean species. ABSTRACT Biodiversity monitoring is crucial for understanding ecosystem dynamics and species distributions, particularly in the context of anthropogenic impacts ...
