Titanocetus
''Titanocetus'' ("Titano whale") is a genus of extinct cetaceans closely related to the family Cetotheriidae.〔 ==Discovery== The fossil remains of ''Titanocetus'' was discovered within some marine deposits dating back to the Serravallian (middle Miocene) and belonging to the "Fumaiolo Formation" (Republic of San Marino). The whale was then described in 1900 by the Italian paleontologist Giovanni Capellini, who later (1901) named it ''Aulocetus sammarinensis''. Over a century later, in 2006, the paleontologist Michelangelo Bisconti stated that the remains was too different from the type species of the genus ''Aulocetus'' and thus established a new genus, ''Titanocetus''.
