Species

Engraulis contains the following species:[3]

Two valid fossil species are also known:[5]

Many other fossil species have been assigned to Engraulis, but a review of these specimens have found most to be far too fragmentary to be assigned to this genus, and many to not even be clupeomorphs.[5]
