Although <i>P. blainvillei</i> is limited to coastal waters of the South Atlantic along Brazil, Uruguay and Argentina, multiple Miocene and Pliocene fossils indicate the past presence of members of the family in the South Atlantic, South Paciifc and North Atlantic oceans. Our comprehension of the origin and diversity of this clade and of the relationships of its members with other inioids is hampered by the fact that part of the described fossil specimens, especially from the North Atlantic realm, are cranial fragments often associated to limited stratigraphic information.MethodsBased on an almost complete fossil cranium of pontoporiid from the Westerschelde estuary, The Netherlands, whose preservation allows for detailed morphological observations, we describe a new genus and species. The latter is compared to other pontoporiids, as well as a few non-pontoporiid inioids. A phylogenetic analysis is performed to investigate the relationship of&nbsp;<i>S. vandokkumi</i> with the best-known extinct and extant inioids. Palynological analysis of the sediment associated to the holotype is used to assess its geological age.Results and discussionThe new genus and species <i>Scaldiporia vandokkumi</i> is characterized among others by greatly thickened premaxillary eminences reaching the level of the antorbital notch. Palynologically dated from the late Tortonian—earliest Zanclean (7.6–5 Ma, Late Miocene—earliest Pliocene), this new pontoporiid confirms the surprising past diversity of marine inioids in the North Atlantic area. Finally the content of the pontoporiid subfamily Brachydelphininae is briefly discussed.","AbstractOtherLang":null,"BibLvlCode":"AS","StandardTitle":"<i>Scaldiporia vandokkumi</i>, a new pontoporiid (Mammalia, Cetacea, Odontoceti) from the Late Miocene to earliest Pliocene of the Westerschelde estuary (The Netherlands)","OrigTitleLangCode":"en","OrigTitleLangCodeExtended":"eng","OrigTitleLangID":15,"DateLastModified":{"date":"2024-12-10 01:33:01.897972","timezone_type":1,"timezone":"+01:00"},"UserAccessRight":null,"UserAccID":null,"AuthorKeywords":"Cetacea; Inioidea; Pontoporiidae; Westerschelde; The Netherlands; Late Miocene; earliest Pliocene","OtherDescriptors":null,"Notes":null,"AnaPub":2017,"MonPub":null,"DateUpdate":"2018-02-13","DateCreate":"2017-11-20","SecASFANote":null,"ConfID":null,"PeerRev":1,"VlizCoreFlag":1,"WoScode":"WOS:000414199600005","VABBcode":null,"OpenAcc":1,"DOI":"10.7717/peerj.3991"},"refs":null,"anarec":{"AnaID":290999,"PubliDate":2017,"Pagination":"e3991","XtraPublOfAnaID":null,"ISBN":null,"Volume":"5","Issue":null,"BRefMon":null,"BRefMonRR":null,"BRefXtra":null,"BRefXtraRR":null,"SerBRefID":242055,"SerRR":"PeerJ.
