Size · not on record: no authority the fetcher reads carries a length for this taxon (a genus page could show the range of its species).
Kogiidae is a family comprising at least two extant species of Cetacea, the pygmy and dwarf sperm whales. As their common names suggest, they somewhat resemble sperm whales, with squared heads and small lower jaws, but are much smaller, with much shorter skulls and more notable dorsal fins than sperm whales.W CalCOFI holds 2 observations of it in 1 dataset between 1989 and 1992.R
