  Comment  
Ex Commerson, a nomen dubium. Lacepède’s (1803) description was obscure and the accompanying figure unclear (Ref. 128123).
  Etymology of generic noun  
Latin, clupea = sardine, derived from Clupeus = shield; doubtless a reference to the scales covering the body of the fish (Ref. 45335).
