balaenids [family Balaenidae]

Glattwale {pl}zool.T

• Members of the Balaenidae family are balaenids, or colloquially right whales. Balaenidae contains four species in two genera.
• During a five-day period in late September 1968, the Soviet factory ship "Vladivostok" and its fleet of whale catchers illegally caught sixty-six balaenids (likely bowheads) in the bay.
• "Morenocetus" is distinguished from more derived balaenids in the narrow exposure of the squamosal lateral to the exoccipital, a short supraorbital process of the frontal, straight lateral edges of the supraoccipital, and a postorbital process of the frontal oriented posteriorly.
• Cladistic analyses of fossils and extant balaenids place "Balaenula" as the sister taxon of right whales in a clade separate from the bowhead whale.
• Although traditionally considered related to balaenids, a recent phylogenetic study by Fordyce and Marx (2013) recovered the living pygmy right whale as a member of Cetotheriidae, making it the only extant cetotheriid, but not all authors agree with this argument.
