The subspecific taxonomy of Blue Whales is not yet fully elucidated. The type subspecies B. m. musculus refers at least to the North Atlantic Blue Whale which was the basis for the first description by Linnaeus. Animals in the northern North Pacific are similar in size and morphology to North Atlantic Blue Whales and are also regarded as B. m. musculus. The Antarctic form B. m. intermedia Burmeister, 1871, sometimes called the true Blue Whale, is distinguished by its large body size and Antarctic distribution in summer.
