Their classification has been controversial for many years . Due to the similarities of their overall appearance , many workers regarded P punctatissimus as a synonym of P argenteus Even though a few authors recognized the differences between them ,there has been great confusion on the nomenclature . Morpholoically , these two species have obvious differences in some aspects , in particular, the number of gill rakers and vertebrae, the lateral line branches in the head, the fin formula , etc.. As these differences comprised sufficient differentiation of these two species, Pampus punctatissimus (Temminck et Schlegel, 1845) was recognized as a species distinct from P argenteus (Euphrasen, 1788). A redescription of it is given in the present study.展开更多

This genus is not well studied in China and where there were only two known species, P nigripes Morawitz and P flavotarsus Wu. The type species of the genus, P niger Nylander, known from Russia and Mongolia, is newly recorded from northern China. The total species now known from China are three species in two species groups, the niger-group and the herzi-group. A key to males of these Chinese species is given.展开更多
