Trisopterus is a genus of small cods, family Gadidae.[1][2][3] They are native to the northeastern Atlantic Ocean including the Mediterranean Sea.[2][3]

Species

There are currently four recognized species in this genus:[4]

Trisopterus capelanus was until recently (2011) considered to be a subspecies of Trisopterus minutus, but both genetic and morphometric data clearly support the status of Trisopterus capelanus as a separate species.[2]
