Species
[edit]Currently, five species in this genus are recognized:[3]
- Scomberoides commersonnianus Lacépède, 1801 (Talang queenfish)
- Scomberoides lysan (Forsskål, 1775) (doublespotted queenfish)
- Scomberoides pelagicus E.M. Abdussamad, Gopalakrishnan, K.G. Mini, S. Sukumaran, P.R. Divya, T.B. Retheesh, A.A. Muhammed, N.V. Dipti, A.R. Akhil, T. Thomas and K.D. Jacob, 2022[4] (Deepbodied Queenfish)
- Scomberoides tala (Cuvier, 1832) (barred queenfish)
- Scomberoides tol (Cuvier, 1832) (needle-scaled queenfish)
Three fossil species are also known:[4]
- †Scomberoides inensis (Ohe & Furuhashi, 1977) - Middle Miocene of Japan[5]
- †Scomberoides maruoi Uyeno & Suda, 1991 - Middle Miocene of Japan[6]
- †Scomberoides spinosus (Smirnov, 1936) - Early to Middle Miocene of Crimea (Ukraine), the North Caucasus (Russia), and Azerbaijan[7]
