Paus balin

Paus balin, juga disebut paus besar, membentuk Mysticeti, satu dari dua parvordo Cetacea (paus, lumba-lumba dan pesut). Paus balin memiliki tulang penyaring untuk menyaring makanan dari air. Balin membedakan mereka dari subordo cetacean lainnya, paus bergigi atau Odontoceti. Spesies Mysticeti hidup memiliki gigi pada saat fase embrional. Fosil Mysticeti memiliki gigi sebelum balin berevolusi.
