Lack of taxonomic information from parietal spine size invalidates subspecies in the Atlantic hookear sculpin Artediellus atlanticus
An analysis of 107 individuals of Atlantic hookear sculpin Artediellus atlanticus from the Barents Sea–Svalbard region and from north‐east Greenland shows that the state of the parietal spines, although not randomly distributed geographically, occurs sympatrically. They do not diagnostically describ...
