| Summary: | Howella atlantica Post & Quéro, 1991 - No common name; ①②③ Post & Quéro (1991) reviewed the species Howella brodiei Ogilby, 1899, and demonstrated the existence of two subspecies: H. brodiei atlantica (Post & Quéro, 1991) from the North and tropical Atlantic and H. brodiei brodiei Ogilby, 1899 from the Indian and Pacific Oceans. The authors also showed that the number of scales between the origin of the second dorsal fin and the lateral line separates the Atlantic populations of Howella into two different species: Howella brodiei atlantica and Howella sherborni (Norman, 1930). Eschmeyer (2013) raised the subspecies Howella brodiei atlantica (Post & Quéro, 1991) to species level: Howella atlantica (Post & Quéro, 1991). The records of H. brodiei in the northeast Atlantic should probably be considered as belonging to H. atlantica.
