Neophoca palatina, the Pleistocene New Zealand sea lion, is an extinct species of pinniped known from a nearly-complete adult male skull found at Ōhope Beach on the North Island in 1937. It was found in a stratum from the late Castlecliffian stage, suggesting an approximate age of 400,000 years. It was not recognised as representing a new species until 1983, distinguishable from the extant Australian sea lion and New Zealand sea lion by the short palate, lack of processes on the ethmoid bulla an
