Anatomy and phylogeny of the large shark-toothed dolphin Phoberodon arctirostris Cabrera, 1926 (Cetacea: Odontoceti) from the early Miocene of Patagonia (Argentina) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
The early Miocene of Patagonia (Argentina) provides one of the best-known records of odontocetes for an age interval with scarce fossils. Most of these taxa are historically old and briefly described, which has contributed, in part, to their ...

Considerations on the comparative pathology of the vertebrae in Mysticeti and Odontoceti; evidence for the occurrence of discarthrosis, zygarthrosis, infectious spondylitis and spondyloarthritis

open access: yes, 1999
Cleaned skeletons of 658 specimen of 47 species of Odontoceti and 44 skeletons of 10 species of Mysticeti were examined for evidence of pathological changes, especially of the vertebrae. Beside the examination of the cleaned skeletons, 132 spinal columns

A new small, mesorostrine inioid (Cetacea, Odontoceti, Delphinida) from four upper Miocene localities in the Pisco Basin, Peru [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
The moderately rich past diversity of the superfamily Inioidea (Cetacea, Odontoceti) in both the Atlantic and Pacific oceans contrasts with the present survival of a single genus (Inia, Amazon river dolphin, family Iniidae) in freshwater deposits of ...

The complete mitochondrial genome of the dwarf sperm whale Kogia sima (Cetacea: Kogiidae)

open access: yesMitochondrial DNA. Part B. Resources, 2019
The dwarf sperm whale is a small, toothed cetacean, which was suggested to be two separate species based on the evidence derived from partial mitochondrial DNA sequence. Here, the complete mitochondrial genome of Kogia sima (16,379 bp in length) has been

Taxonomic revision of the family Squalodontidae (Cetacea, Odontoceti): emptying the wastebasket of fragmentary holotypes

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Abstract The Squalodontidae are one of the most historic families within the Cetacea, given that Squalodon was first named in 1840. Since Squalodon's initial description, workers in the 1800s were eager to assign heterodont cetacean teeth to this family; as a result, it became a wastebasket with many species based on fragmentary remains.

Reassessment of the iconic Oligo‐Miocene heterodont dolphin Squalodon: a redescription of the type species S. grateloupii

open access: yesPapers in Palaeontology, Volume 11, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
Abstract Since its description in 1840, the toothed whale Squalodon was conceptualized as a transitional form between archaeocetes‐like Basilosaurus and the modern toothed whales (Odontoceti). The cranial morphology of Squalodon approximates that of modern odontocetes; however, their dental patterning more closely resembles that of archaeocetes ...
