First record of Antarctic minke whale, Balaenoptera bonaerensis, in the northern Gulf of Mexico
Abstract Background The Antarctic minke whale, Balaenoptera bonaerensis, is a Southern Hemisphere species of balaenopterid whale generally found south of 60°S in austral summer. In the Atlantic Ocean, they migrate north during austral winter as far as approximately 7°S. On 05 February, 2013, a 7.7 m...
