In order to resolve the long-standing controversy surrounding relationships within Triplophysa genus, we conducted an extensive analysis of complete mitogenome labiata using DNBSEQ short reads. Additionally, reconstructed phylogeny Nemacheilidae family data. By comparing all available mitogenomes gained valuable insights into its evolutionary history. Our findings revealed that sequence T. is c...

this paper used the results of a research project entitled biodiversity of inland water fishes of iran which was carried out from 2005 to 2010. some 3500 fish specimens were obtained from different basins of iran by using electrofishing method, cast net, gill net and hook. using criteria such as size, shape and color, some of them are considered suitable to keep in aquarium. due to the results ...

Tibetan loaches are the largest group of Tibetan fishes and are well adapted to the Tibetan Plateau. To investigate the origin of Tibetan loaches and their adaptations to the Tibetan Plateau, we determined 32 complete mitochondrial genomes that included 29 Tibetan loach species, two Barbatula species and Schistura longus. By combining these newly determined sequences with other previously publi...

Two hypogean species of genus Triplophysa are herein described from two subterranean tributaries the River Yangtze drainage in Guiyang City, Guizhou Province, China. wudangensis, new species, can be distinguished its congeners by combination following characters: eye reduced, with diameter 5.1-6.5% HL; interorbital width 33.1-35.8% body scaleless; lateral line complete; posterior chamber air bl...

Abstract The present study was conducted for the taxonomic, morphometric and limnological assessment of commercially important ichthyofauna Sakhakot Stream, Malakand, Pakistan. area divided into three sites along water course namely Dargai Stream Shergarh Stream. Fish samples were collected randomly during January to August 2017 with help fish gears. A taxonomic key designed specimens. Ten spec...

Four obligate cave fish species have been recorded from Zagros in Iran: Garra typhlops (Bruun and Kaiser, 1944), G. lorestanensis (Mousavi-Sabet Eagderi, 2016), tashanensis (Mousavi-Sabet, Vatandoust, Fatemi 2016) Eidinemacheilus smithi (Greenwood, 1976). So far, the only known locality of latter has Loven cave. Here, we extend range blind loach (E. smithi) by reporting a new locality, Tuveh sp...

The hill stream loach genus Indoreonectes is endemic to peninsular India south of the Satpura ranges and represented by three species I. evezardi , keralensis telanganaensis . has been suggested as a complex based on recent genetic studies; however, due lack type material delimitation difficult. Here we redescribe collected from its locality describe two new northern Western Ghats India. neeles...
