New data from barcode index numbers (BINs) and 28S rRNA gene sequences confirm a cryptic species pair in Lyrodus pedicellatus from the eastern Mediterranean and European Atlantic coasts. Therefore, it is paramount to associate the new species to a scientific name for a reliable reference system of biological information. To this end, we describe Lyrodus mersinensis sp. nov., another cryptic species in the L. pedicellatus complex, and redescribe the `true´ L. pedicellatus. Both the description and redescription are based on molecular diagnostic characters obtained from sequences of the mitochondrial cytochrome c oxidase subunit I (COI) and nuclear 28S rRNA genes. The 18S rRNA gene sequences did not yield diagnostic characters to distinguish these species. A morphological diagnosis of pedicellatus-like Lyrodus species is also provided.
来自条形码索引号（BINs）和28S rRNA基因序列的新数据证实，东地中海和欧洲大西洋沿岸的柄尾复瓦鲀（Lyrodus pedicellatus）存在一对隐存种。因此，将新物种与科学名称相关联对于建立可靠的生物信息参考系统至关重要。为此，我们描述了梅尔辛柄尾复瓦鲀（Lyrodus mersinensis sp. nov.），它是柄尾复瓦鲀复合体中的另一个隐存种，并重新描述了“真正的”柄尾复瓦鲀。描述和重新描述均基于从线粒体细胞色素c氧化酶亚基I（COI）和核28S rRNA基因序列中获得的分子诊断特征。18S rRNA基因序列未产生区分这些物种的诊断特征。还提供了似柄尾复瓦鲀属物种的形态学诊断。
