Heard off Heard: Acoustic detections of sperm whales (Physeter macrocephalus) and other cetaceans off Heard Island [PDF]

open access: yesJASA Express Letters
An underwater acoustic recorder was moored off Heard Island from September 2017 through March 2018 to listen for marine mammals. Analysis of data was initially conducted by visual inspection of long-term spectral averages to reveal sounds from sperm ...

Biologically Important Areas II for cetaceans within U.S. and adjacent waters – Hawaiʻi Region

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2023
In this assessment we incorporated published and unpublished information to delineate and score Biologically Important Areas (BIAs) for cetaceans in the Hawaiʻi region following standardized criteria.

An Acoustic Survey of Beaked Whales and Kogia spp. in the Mariana Archipelago Using Drifting Recorders

open access: yesFrontiers in Marine Science, 2021
The distribution, abundance, and habitat of cryptic cetacean species such as beaked whales and dwarf/pygmy sperm whales (Kogia spp.) are challenging to study due to their long dive times and/or very limited surface behavior.

A new kogiid sperm whale from northern Italy supports psychrospheric conditions in the early Pliocene Mediterranean Sea [PDF]

open access: yesActa Palaeontologica Polonica, 2019
Among living cetaceans, dwarf and pygmy sperm whales (Kogia) are the only members of the family Kogiidae, regarded as diminutive and elusive relatives of the great sperm whale Physeter. Kogiids are known as fossils by several skulls, teeth, and ear bones

Structure, material characteristics and function of the upper respiratory tract of the pygmy sperm whale [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Biology, 2013
SummaryCetaceans are neckless, so the trachea is very short. The upper respiratory tract is separate from the mouth and pharynx. The dorsal blowhole connects, via the vestibular and nasopalatine cavities, directly to the larynx. Toothed cetaceans (Odontoceti) are capable of producing sounds at depth, either for locating prey, or for communication.

A note on the release and tracking of a rehabilitated pygmy sperm whale (Kogia breviceps)

open access: yesJ. Cetacean Res. Manage., 2023
A stranded, rehabilitated 220cm female pygmy sperm whale was radiotracked from 31 May-4 June 1994 after its release in the Gulf Stream off Cape Canaveral, Florida. The whale moved directly off the continental shelf and headed northward within a corridor bounded by the shelf break and the eastern edge of the Gulf Stream.

SEM study of Anisakis brevispiculata Dollfus, 1966 and Pseudoterranova ceticola (Deardoff and Overstreet, 1981) (Nematoda: Anisakidae), parasites of the pygmy sperm whale Kogia breviceps

open access: yesScientia Marina, 2002
Scanning Electron Microscopy (SEM) was used to study different topo-morphological characteristics of the architecture (cuticle, excretory pore, lips and adjacent structures, number and distribution patterns of caudal papillae and papillae-like structures)
