Short description
Identification keys | Morphology | Morphometrics
This species is distinguished from its congeners present in Anatolia and adjacent waters (aydinensis, antalyensis, baliki, banarescui, barroisi, bergamae, capoeta, caelestis, damascina, ekmekciae, erhani, kosswigi, mauricii, pestai, sieboldii, sevangi, tinca, trutta, turani, umbla) by the absence of a keratinised edge on the lower lip (vs. present, except for sieboldii, pestai, mauricii; fewer gill rakers on first gill arch, 7-10 (vs. 18–33); fewer branched dorsal fin rays, 7½ (vs. commonly 8½-9½); less serrations along the posterior margin of the last simple dorsal fin ray 0-5 (vs. 12-29, except for caelestis) (Ref. 119422).
Collected from the Ezine Stream, which is a clear and moderately flowing water body with a stone and sand-mud substrate (Ref. 119422).
