Multiple fossil calibrations, nuclear loci and mitochondrial genomes provide new insight into biogeography and divergence timing for true seals (Phocidae, Pinnipedia) (2010, background): “…support a Pacific origin of pinnipeds, continued early otariid and odobenid evolution in the Pacific and movement of the phocid ancestor through the Central American Seaway, leading to an Atlantic origin of the Phocidae (Bininda-Emonds & Russell, 1996; Deméré et al., 2003; Fyler et al., 2005).”
A new marine vertebrate assemblage from the Late Neogene Purisima Formation in Central California, part II: Pinnipeds and Cetaceans (2013, background): “…the west coast of the United States and Mexico has long been known to yield rich assemblages of marine vertebrates of Cenozoic age (Jordan & Hannibal 1923; Kellogg 1927, 1931; Barnes 1977; Repenning & Tedford 1977; Domning 1978; Warheit 1992; Miyazaki et al. 1995; Barnes 1998; Deméré et al. 2003).”
Projected status of the Pacific walrus (Odobenus rosmarus divergens) in the twenty-first century (2011, background): “These small-bodied archaic walruses gave rise during the middle and late Miocene to larger-bodied, but non tusked lineages of imagotariine and dusignathine walruses (Demere et al. 2003 ; Amason et al. 2(06) .”
