southern fin whale : ウィキペディア英語版 | southern fin whale
The southern fin whale (''Balaenoptera physalus quoyi'') is a subspecies of fin whale that lives in the Southern Ocean. At least one other subspecies of fin whale, the northern fin whale (''B. p. physalus''), exists in the northern hemisphere.〔 ==Taxonomy==
Based on differences in the vertebrae, the Swedish zoologist Einar Lönnberg (1931) designated ''Balaenoptera physalus quoyii'' (later the Russian scientist A.G. Tomilin (1957) corrected this to ''B. p. quoyi''). ''B. p. quoyi'' in turn is based on ''Balaena quoyi'' (Fischer, 1829), which was the name given to a 16.7 m (55 ft) specimen seen on the shores of the Falkland Islands by Monsieur Quoy and originally named ''Balaena rostrata australis'' by Desmoulins (1822).〔Perrin, William F., James G.
