Clupea harengus harengus - Atlantic Herring 

 and C. h. pallasii , Pacific Herring 



Hubbs (pers. comm.) states that the Atlantic _(C_- h. harengus) and 

 Pacific forms (£. h_. pallasii) are treated variously as conspecific or 

 distinct species by different authorities. We have lumped them under a 

 single species with two subspecies. Fish taken from the Bering Sea or 

 Pacific Ocean are C. b. pallasii and those from the Atlantic Ocean, North 

 Sea, Baltic Sea or White Sea are C. h. harengus .
