Balcena gibbosa, p. 610, sp. n. ; not Scrag Whale, Dudley, as usually stated, which is one 

 of the "Species obscure" not formally recognized, although some of the synonyms cited 

 under B. gibbosa may cover Dudley's ScragnWhale, which Erxleben cites (or the species based 

 on it) at p. 607, at the end of his account of his Balcena physalus. 



The author very justly observes: "Cetorum species pauciores recte cognitae: videtur 

 horum historia denuo fere inchoanda" (p. 601). His treatment of the subject is judicious, 

 being superior, perhaps, to that of any other systematist of the eighteenth century. While 

 still retaining a few species proved later to be merely nominal, he relegated to the list of 

 4 ' Species obscurae' ' several which had been current! y recognized by previous compilers. [ 341 . ]
