Analysis of the Acoustic Signals from Three Pygmy Sperm Whales (Kogia breviceps)

The pygmy sperm whale, Kogia breviceps, is a small odontocete whose biology and ecology are poorly understood. The Kogiids are taxonomically classified within the Superfamily Physeteroidea due to the presence of a spermaceti organ. This organ, along with the museau de singe/dorsal bursae complex, ha...
