Eumicrotremus is a genus of lumpfishes native to the northern oceans. The name for this genus comes from the Greek roots eu meaning "good", mikros meaning "small" or "little", and trema meaning "hole".[1]

Taxonomy

Eumicrotremus was first proposed as a genus in 1862 by the American biologist Theodore Gill with Johan Christian Fabricius's Cyclopterus spinosus as its type species.[2] The 5th edition of Fishes of the World does not recognize subfamilies within the Cyclopteridae,[3] however, other authorities place this genus in the subfamily Eumicrotreminae.[2]

Species

There are currently 18 recognized species in this genus:[1][4][5]

  • Eumicrotremus multituberculatus Voskoboinikova 2018
  • Eumicrotremus ochotonensis Popov 1928
