Waipatiidae is an extinctfamily ofodontocetes currently known from theOligocene of the Pacific Ocean and possibly Europe and theCaucasus.

Taxonomy

[edit]

Waipatiidae was coined byFordyce (1994) to include his new taxonWaipatia, and he also considered the generaMicrocetus,Sachalinocetus, andSulakocetus to be possible waipatiids.[1] The taxon"Prosqualodon" marplesi was recognized in the 2010s as being a member of Waipatiidae and given its own genus,Otekaikea.[2][3][4]
