Piscobalaena is an extinct genus of cetaceans, which lived from the Middle to Late Miocene epochs (about 11.6 to 5.3 million years ago) in Peru and Florida.[1] Its fossils have been found in the Pisco Formation of Peru and the Bone Valley Formation of Florida.[2] At least some individuals of this diminutive whale were preyed on by the shark O. megalodon.[3]
