discussion
Bañón et al. (2012) discovered that the COI DNA sequencing along with morphological and meristic analyses strongly suggest that there are no specific differences between the Atlantic Lepidion eques and the Mediterranean species L. lepidion (Risso, 1810). Therefore, they proposed L. eques as a junior synonym of L. lepidion.
