Corvula is a genus of marine ray-finned fishes belonging to the family Sciaenidae, the drums and croakers. These fishes are found in the western Atlantic Ocean and the central eastern Pacific Ocean.
==Taxonomy== Corvula was first proposed as a genus in 1889 by the American ichthyologists David Starr Jordan and Carl H. Eigenmann with Johnius batabanus designated as the type species. J. batabanus had been described in 1860 by the Cuban zoologist Felipe Poey with its type locality given as Batabanó on the southern coast of Cuba. This genus has been placed in the subfamily Stelliferinae by some workers, but the 5th edition of Fishes of the World does not recognise subfamilies within the Sciaenidae which it places in the order Acanthuriformes.
