Using published records and original data from recent field work and revision of Iranian material of certain species deposited in the collections of the Natural History Museum Basel, the Zoological Museum Berlin, and Natural History Museum Vienna, a checklist of the freshwater gastropod fauna of Iran was compiled. This checklist contains 73 species from 34 genera and 14 families of freshwater s...

For the first time, hematological parameters of tyulka (Clupeonella cultriventris, Nordmann, 1840) in reservoirs Upper Volga were studied. The composition leukocytes and thrombocytes, morphometric characteristics cells studied by routine methods light microscopy. It was shown that blood has a lymphocytic character, but an increase number granulocytes their size found against background decrease...

this study was carried out to evaluate the chemical compoition of alosa caspia and results compared with clupeonella engrauliformis which is a common fish catch among clupeonella and clupeidae spp in caspian sea . results showed that the amount of fat, protein, ash and dry matter in alosa was higher than clupeonella. the fatty acid composition showed that the epa was very high in alosa that sho...
