This paper reports nine sperm whale (Cetacea, Odontoceti, Physeteroidea) teeth from Cessaniti, a late Miocene fossiliferous locality in the Monte Poro - Capo Vaticano area (Vibo Valentia, Calabria, Italy). This new sperm whale record further suggests a high diversity of the fossil assemblage of Cessaniti that stimulates future research addressed to reconstruct the intriguing ecological structure of the Tortonian marine vertebrate fauna that lived in this sedimentary basin.

Abstract
This paper reports nine sperm whale (Cetacea, Odontoceti, Physeteroidea) teeth from Cessaniti, a late Miocene fossiliferous locality in the Monte Poro - Capo Vaticano area (Vibo Valentia, Calabria, Italy). This new sperm whale record further suggests a high diversity of the fossil assemblage of Cessaniti that stimulates future research addressed to reconstruct the intriguing ecological structure of the Tortonian marine vertebrate fauna that lived in this sedimentary basin.File in questo prodotto:
