Trisopterus is a genus of small cods, family Gadidae. They are native to the northeastern Atlantic Ocean including the Mediterranean Sea.[1]
There are currently four recognized species in this genus:
Trisopterus capelanus was until recently (2011) considered to be a subspecies of Trisopterus minutus, but both genetic and morphometric data clearly support the status of Trisopterus capelanus as a separate species.[1]
