Species diversity and distribution of genus Pampus (Pelagiaria: Stromateidae) based on global mitochondrial data

Due to the highly similar external morphology of the Pampus species, misidentifications frequently occur and hinder the understanding of the taxonomy and species distributions of the genus. In this study, we generated 271 mitochondrial sequences and obtained 1,226 sequences from the public databases...

Species diversity and distribution of genus Pampus (Pelagiaria: Stromateidae) based on global mitochondrial data
description Due to the highly similar external morphology of the Pampus species, misidentifications frequently occur and hinder the understanding of the taxonomy and species distributions of the genus.

Most phylogenetic analyses and species delimitations congruently concluded seven valid species within the genus Pampus (i.e., P. argenteus, P. candidus, P. chinensis, P. cinereus, P. liuorum, P. minor, and P. punctatissimus).
