Eumicrotremus jindoensis

Species of lumpfish

Eumicrotremus jindoensis is a species of lumpfish native to the Northwest Pacific, where it may be found off the coast of the Korean Peninsula and in the Yellow Sea. It occurs at a depth range of 20 to 30 metres (66 to 98 ft), and it reaches 2.5 centimetres (1 in) SL.[1] This species was described in 2017 as part of a review of "dwarf" species of Eumicrotremus, which reclassified the species then known as Lethotremus awae as a member of Eumicrotremus in addition to describing another similarly small new species, known as Eumicrotremus uenoi.[2]
