There’ll be no whale sightings on Capitol Hill this month.

JPMorgan’s trader, Bruno Iksil, known as the “London Whale,” who is at the center of the bank’s $2 billion debacle, will not appear at a Senate Banking Committee hearing to discuss his role in causing the red ink.

Instead, CEO Jamie Dimon appears set to square off against lawmakers alone on June 13.

The once-unsullied bank executive will have to explain how he was blind to his Chief Investment Office’s outsized, wrong-way bet.

Dimon is slated to meet with members of the House on June 19, sources said.

Neither committee has requested to hear from either the French-born Iksil, who lives in London, or Ina Drew, who ran the CIO unit where the trader worked.

Drew resigned from JPMorgan days after the bank announced its eye-popping losses.
