Eumicrotremus tokranovi

Eumicrotremus tokranovi is a species of lumpfish native to the Northwest Pacific, and one of two species some authorities place in the genus Microancathus.

It is distinguished from the closely related E. fedorovi by a taller body and flatter and less developed bone plaques.

[2] This species was described by the Russian ichthyologist Olga Stepanovna Voskoboinikova in 2015 in the proposed new genus, Microancathus and the reclassification of M. fedorovi in that genus.

[1] Catalog of Fishes does not recognize the new genus and classifies this species in Eumicrotremus.

[3] The specific name honors the ichthyologist Alexei Mikhailovich Tokranovof the Kamchatka Branch of the Pacific Institute of Geography and the Far East Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences.
