balaenoptera

Balaenoptera edeni described a stranded specimen on the coast of Burma in 1878.

He is particularly known for his work on the Cladocera of Sweden, and on the Balaenoptera.

Minke Whales, Balaenoptera acutorostrata, are also at risk.

In 1983, while he was working in public relations photography and teaching, Thornton persuaded him to join another anti-whaling ship, "Balaenoptera".

He also reported the discovery of an Arkonan-aged rorqual whale rib of the genus Balaenoptera.

Blue Whale, Balaenoptera musculus (scientific name)

V. Razor-back whale (probably Balaenoptera physalus, identical to the Fin-back).

Balaenoptera physalus (Fin whale)

Balaenoptera acutorostrata(Minke whale)

Balaenoptera borealis(Sei whale)

In 1804, Lacépède shifted the humpback from the Balaenidae family, renaming it Balaenoptera jubartes.

The Bryde's Whale (Balaenoptera edeni) is a baleen whale.

In 1903, the Romanian scientist Emil Racoviță placed all these designations into Balaenoptera physalus.

The database ITIS lists all three as valid taxa, with a similar caveat on Balaenoptera systematics.

Though clearly related to the giant whales of the genus Balaenoptera, the humpback has been the sole member of its genus since Gray's work in 1846.

English paleontologist Richard Owen named Balaenoptera definata, B. emarginata, and B. gibbosa in 1844.

The whales belong to a group called the rorqual whales, or balaenoptera, which includes the blue whale, fin whale, sei and minke whales.

The 'Blue Whale' ('Balaenoptera musculus') is a marine mammal belonging to the suborder of baleen whales (called Mysticeti).

A notable example is the bones of a Pliocene age baleen whale, assigned the questionable name "Balaenoptera sibbaldina", which likely rivaled the modern blue whale in size.

The only rorqual whale which is currently not classified as a member of the genus Balaenoptera is the Humpback Whale, Megaptera novaeangliae.

He also obtained the skeletons from a bowhead whale (Balaena mysticetus) and a young Blue Whale (Balaenoptera musculus), which are still on display in the museum.

In 1804, Baron de Lacepede named it Balaenoptera acuto-rostrata, basing his description partly on the stranding of a juvenile near Cherbourg, France in 1791.

Formerly the rorqual family Balaenopteridae was split into two subfamilies, Balaenopterinae and Megapterinae, with each subfamily contained one genus, Balaenoptera and Megaptera respectively.

Genesee is noted for having had the fossil of an ancient whale known as Balaenoptera Lacepede unearthed in Thetford Township during quarry work and estimated at 11,000 years old.

The genus name Eobalaenoptera reflects the similarities between this skeleton and species in the genus Balaenoptera such as the Minke Whale; eo- is a prefix meaning dawn.
