Trisopterus is a genus of small cods native to the northeastern Atlantic Ocean including the Mediterranean Sea.[1]
Species

There are currently four recognized species in this genus:[2]

Trisopterus capelanus (Lacepède, 1800)
Trisopterus esmarkii (Nilsson, 1855) (Norway pout)
Trisopterus luscus (Linnaeus, 1758) (pouting)
Trisopterus minutus (Linnaeus, 1758) (poor cod)

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]
