Hyperoodon

Description

Hyperoodon (or Hyperoödon) is a genus of beaked whale, containing just two species: the Northern and Southern bottlenose whales. Longman's beaked whales are alternatively called tropical bottlenose whales due to their physical features resembling those of bottlenose whales.
