    Monodontidae is in the Cetacea order, which includes all whales, dolphins, and porpoises. It's part of the toothed whale suborder Odontoceti, specifically in the superfamily Delphinoidea. Monodontidae shares this category with other families like Delphinidae (oceanic dolphins) and Phocoenidae (porpoises).
    In 1758, Linnaeus used the scientific name Monodon monoceros for the whale with one tooth and one horn. Together with the close relative the white whale or beluga, Delphinapterus leucas, the narwhal now forms the two-species family of Monodontidae. Newborn narwhals are evenly gray or dark-brownish gray.
    Monodontids are generally found in schools, sometimes including more than 100 individuals. They migrate in response to the shifting ice pack. Both species feed mainly on the bottom, consuming a number of species of fish and invertebrates.
    The earliest fossil record of the monodontids is of an extinct beluga Denebola brachycephala from late Miocene deposits in Baja California, Mexico, indicating that this family once occupied temperate ecozones ( Barnes, 1984 ).
