Kutchicetus

Wikipedia Abstract

Kutchicetus ("Kutch whale") is an extinct genus of early whale of the family Remingtonocetidae that lived during Early-Middle Eocene (Lutetian and Ypresian) in what is now the coastal border of Pakistan and India (23°42′N 68°42′E / 23.7°N 68.7°E, paleocoordinates 6°00′N 61°48′E / 6.0°N 61.8°E). It is closely related to Andrewsiphius with which it was synonymized by . proposed a new clade, Andrewsiphiinae, for the two species. Later authors, however, still accept both as separate genera.
