本研究重新檢視台灣鯷科下各物種，共檢視343隻標本以及確認台灣物種有5屬12種，其中鯷屬有1個物種，公鯷屬有2個物種，側帶小公魚屬有4個物種，黃鯽屬有1個物種，稜鯷屬有4個物種。根據上頜骨的長度、體表上的色素斑分布、腹部稜鱗數、鰓耙數、鰓耙形狀以及耳石的形態，可以有效區分所有物種。本研究提供所有物種之鑑別特徵、完整描述以及檢索表。

Species of the family Engraulidae was reviewed. A total of 343 specimens were examined and 5 genera and 12 species were recognized, including Engraulis (1 species), Encrasicholina (2 species), Stolephorus (4 species), Setipinna (1 species) and Thryssa (4 species). All species can be distinguished effectively by following characters of length of upper jaw, body pigmentation, number of ventral scutes, number of gill rakers, number of gill filaments and the shape of otolith. Diagnosis, detailed descriptions and a key to all species were provided.
