20.500.12556/DiRROS-19386 A new locality for the blind loach, Eidinemacheilus smithi (Teleostei: Nemacheilidae) in Iranian Zagros a morpho-molecular approach Four obligate cave fish species have been recorded from Zagros in Iran: Garra typhlops (Bruun and Kaiser, 1944), G. lorestanensis (Mousavi-Sabet and Eagderi, 2016), G. tashanensis (Mousavi-Sabet, Vatandoust, Fatemi and Eagderi, 2016) and Eidinemacheilus smithi (Greenwood, 1976). So far, the only known locality of the latter has been the Loven cave. Here, we extend the known range of the Zagros blind loach (E. smithi) by reporting a new locality, the Tuveh spring, located 31 km south of Loven. We combine morphological evidence with the calculated K2P genetic divergences of 1.39% between Tuveh and Loven to confirm that these populations are conspecific. Our discovery of the second E. smithi population has implications for the conservation of this rare and vulnerable species. fishes caves evolution Irano-Anatolian hotspot troglobiont ribe jame evolucija Zagros true false true Angleški jezik Slovenski jezik Neznano 2024-07-17 03:56:14 2024-07-17 10:50:01 2024-07-18 03:53:59 0000-00-00 00:00:00 2022 0 0 Nasl. z nasl. zaslona; Opis vira z dne 9. 7. 2022; Ostali avtorji: Yaser Fatemi, Hamid Reza Esmaeili, Tjaša Lokovšek and Matjaž Kuntner; str.
