Abstract

A fragment of a crown and an isolated lower commissural tooth of a sperm whale of the Family Physetheridae are described. The dental remains were recovered from the upper bathyal sediments of the Chagres Formation (late Miocene), with a strong Pacific affinity in the locality of the Piña Town in the Caribbean littoral of Panama.
