Eumicrotremus andriashevi, also known as the pimpled lumpsucker, is a species of lumpfish native to the Arctic and North Pacific. In addition to the Arctic Ocean, it may be found in the Chukchi and Bering Seas, where it occurs at a depth range of 20 to 83 m (66 to 272 ft). It is a small bottom-dwelling fish that reaches 4.8 cm (1.9 inches) in standard length.[1]
Two subspecies of this fish are recognized:
E. a. aculeatus can be distinguished from the nominate subspecies by its taller body, shorter snout, and larger bone plaques that form the fish's "cheeks".[2] Eumicrotremus andriashevi is the only species in the family Cyclopteridae to have any recognized subspecies.
