Annalisa Berta (born 23 July 1952[1]) is an American paleontologist and professor emerita in the Department of Biology at San Diego State University.[2][3]

The focus of her research is the evolution and fossil history of whales and other marine mammals, and among her contributions is the description of the early pinniped Enaliarctos.[4][5]

Berta received her Ph.D. from the Department of Paleontology at the University of California, Berkeley in 1979, after which she was a postdoctoral researcher at University of Florida before starting as a faculty member at San Diego State University in 1982.[6] Berta served as president of the Society of Vertebrate Paleontology in 2004–2006[7] and she was elected a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science (AAAS) in 2015[8] and of the Paleontological Society in 2022.[9]
