First record of Oxynoemacheilus zarzianus Freyhof & Geiger, 2017 from Iran (Teleostei: Nemacheilidae)
Abstract
Oxynoemacheilus zarzianus was described from the Lesser Zab River drainage in Iraqi Kurdistan. Here, we report this species for the first time from the Iranian part of the Sirvan River drainage based on morphological and mtDNA COI barcode sequence characters.References
