Etrumeus micropus is a species of round-herring that occurs in the western Pacific Ocean.
Taxonomy
Etrumeus micropus was treated as a junior synonym of E. teres by Whitehead (1985), who nonetheless suggested that E. teres might be divisible into species or subspecies.[1] Randall (2007) recognized Etrumeus micropus as a valid species from Japan, Korea, and the Hawaiian Islands, while noting that DNA testing might render the Hawaiian population distinct from the East Asian populations.[2] Subsequent DNA analysis by Randall and DiBattista (2012) showed that the Hawaiian population of Etrumeus micropus is distinct species, which the authors named Etrumeus makiawa.[3][4]
