Chlorophthalmus Borealis - What is the name of this fish in English?

Looking on the Internet, this fish is referred to in a variety of ways including Japanese white fish and tiny silver fish. This piece of sushi definitely did not come from a tiny fish. Actually, this fish does not have a common name in English. The scientific name is chlorophthalmus borealis. Will Americans some day say mehikari the same way that we say pizza and hamburger? I doubt it, but one never knows.
