Biogeography in the deep: Hierarchical population genomic structure of two beaked whale species
Global Ecology and Conservation, 2022 The deep sea is the largest ecosystem on Earth, yet little is known about the processes driving patterns of genetic diversity in its inhabitants. Here, we investigated the macro- and microevolutionary processes shaping genomic population structure and ...

The oldest fossil record of the extant genus Berardius (Odontoceti, Ziphiidae) from the Middle to Late Miocene boundary of the western North Pacific [PDF]
Royal Society Open Science, 2021 A new species of a beaked whale that belongs to the extant genus Berardius is described from the Middle to Late Miocene boundary age Tsurushi Formation (ca 12.3–11.5 Ma) on the Sado Island, Niigata Prefecture, Japan. The new species, Berardius kobayashii
