Eumicrotremus
''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". Species There are currently 16 recognized species in this genus (three additional species have been moved to '' Georgimarinus'', '' Microancathus'', and '' Proeumicrotremus'' and a species from '' Lethotremus'' has since been moved to this genus): * ''Eumicrotremus andriashevi'' Perminov, 1936 ** '' E. a. aculeatus'' Voskoboinikova & Nazarkin, 2015 (Andriashev's spicular-spiny pimpled lumpsucker) Voskoboinikova, O.S. & Nazarkin, M.V.

Lumpfish
The Cyclopteridae are a family of marine fishes, commonly known as lumpsuckers or lumpfish, in the order Scorpaeniformes. They are found in the cold waters of the Arctic, North Atlantic, and North Pacific oceans. The greatest number of species are found in the North Pacific. The family name ''Cyclopteridae'' derives from the Greek words ''κύκλος'' (kyklos), meaning "circle", and ''πτέρυξ'' (pteryx), meaning "wing" or "fin", in reference to the circle-shaped pectoral fins of most of the fish in this family. Description Lumpsuckers are named appropriately enough; their portly bodies are nearly spherical with generally drab coloration and lithic patterns. The "sucker" part refers to the fish's modified pelvic fins, which have evolved into adhesive discs (located ventrally, behind the pectoral fins); the fish use these discs to adhere to the substrate. Many species have bony, wart-like ''tubercles'' adorning the head and body; these are important taxonomic features of ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Eumicrotremus Orbis
The Pacific spiny lumpsucker (''Eumicrotremus orbis'') is a species of bony fish in the family Cyclopteridae. Description Pacific spiny lumpsuckers are a globular-shaped fish that typically measures in length, though the most common size is . It has a maximum known length of around . They have a wide mouth with large lips, and protruding eyes. The fish also has a squared dorsal fin, rounded caudal fin, and thin, transparent pectoral fins. The lumpsucker's pelvic fins have evolved into a large, fringed suction cup, allowing it to attach to surfaces. This sucker also compensates the fish for its lack of gas bladder. Because of their large, rounded shape with small fins, Pacific spiny lumpsuckers are ineffective swimmers and are most commonly found attached to solid objects. They do not have scales. Instead, the body of the fish is covered in cone-shaped plates, called tubercles. Females have more tubercles than males. The Pacific spiny lumpsucker is seen in many colors, inclu ...

Eumicrotremus Eggvinii still lists ''E. eggvinii'' as a synonym of ''E. spinosus''. This species can reportedly be distinguished from its relatives by the number and position of bone plaques.Voskoboinikova, O.S. & Chernova, N.V.

''Eumicrotremus eggvinii'', known as Eggvin's lumpsucker or the Eggvin lumpsucker, is a species of lumpfish known only from the Barents Sea.
