Feresa attenuata Gray, 1874 p.238 View in CoL ; Type locality- South Seas; Kim et al., 2000 p.88; Kim, 2004 p.239.
Range: Since F. attenuata rarely enters the waters of Korea, vagrant might better fit the distribution status of this species ( Fig. 96 View FIGURE 96 ).
Remarks: The pygmy killer whale is a monotypic species with low genetic diversity across its range ( Burbidge et al. 2012).
