| Quote | maintain the specific name encrasicolus to the apparently most common and widespread anchovy species in the seas of Europe; also referred to as 'oceanic' or 'open-sea anchovy’ (often referred to as ‘blue anchovy’ or ‘green anchovy’, depending on location). The coastal species E. maeoticus (Pusanov & Tzeeb, 1926), which applies to all coastal populations that have been found to share a common ancestry (specimens under the name E. albidus should be considered as valid type specimens of E. maeoticus). |
