Petroleuciscus
''Petroleuciscus'' is a genus of four species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. It was usually included in ''Leuciscus'' until recently. This genus unites the Ponto-Caspian chubs and daces. Recent research has indicated that ''Petroleuciscus esfahani'' is probably a synonym of ''Alburnus doriae''.

Alburnus Doriae
''Alburnus doriae'' is a species of cyprinid fish from Iran. It was previously thought to be restricted to central Iran, but recent research shows that it is more widespread and that ''Alburnus amirkabiri'' and ''Petroleuciscus esfahani'' are probably a synonyms of ''Alburnus doriae''. Description ''Alburnus doriae'' is a fish with a slender body which shows marked lateral compression with as lightly convex or straight dorsal profile. It has a pointed snout and the lower jaw normally projects beyond the upper jaw, the snout being at least as long as the diameter of the eye and equal to the interorbital distance, the interorbital area is concave. The mouth points upwards. The maximum standard length is 134mm. The back is dark olive-brown through to grey in colour with silver on the flanks, belly and lower part of the head, a dark grey strip runs from the back of the eye to the caudal peduncle with darker brown spots below and above the lateral line. The fins lack colour apart fr ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Cyprinidae
Cyprinidae is a family of freshwater fish commonly called the carp or minnow family. It includes the carps, the true minnows, and relatives like the barbs and barbels. Cyprinidae is the largest and most diverse fish family and the largest vertebrate animal family in general with about 3,000 species, of which only 1,270 remain extant, divided into about 370 genera. Cyprinids range from about 12 mm in size to the giant barb (''Catlocarpio siamensis''). By genus and species count, the family makes up more than two-thirds of the ostariophysian order Cypriniformes. The family name is derived from the Greek word ( 'carp'). Biology and ecology Cyprinids are stomachless fish with toothless jaws. Even so, food can be effectively chewed by the gill rakers of the specialized last gill bow. These pharyngeal teeth allow the fish to make chewing motions against a chewing plate formed by a bony process of the skull. The pharyngeal teeth are unique to each species and are used by scient ...

Leuciscus
''Leuciscus'' is a genus of fish belonging to the family Cyprinidae. They are inland water fishes commonly called Eurasian daces. The genus is widespread from Europe to Siberia. Species broadly distributed in Europe include the common dace ''Leuciscus leuciscus'' and the ide ''L. idus''. The European chubs were formerly also included in ''Leuciscus'', but they are now usually separated in another genus, ''Squalius'' (e.g. the chub, ''Squalius cephalus''). The delimitation of ''Leuciscus'' and ''Squalius'' is not completely resolved; some species have been moved from one genus to the other only in recent years. The genera ''Petroleuciscus'' and '' Telestes'' have also been split off from ''Leuciscus'' recently; for the latter the same holds true as for ''Squalius'' regarding the unclear delimitations. Species Currently, 19 recognized species are in this genus: * ''Leuciscus aspius'' (Linnaeus, 1758) (asp) * ''Leuciscus baicalensis'' ( Dybowski, 1874) (Siberian dace) * ''Leuc ...

Dace (other)
A dace is a small fish that can be one of many different species. The unmodified name is usually a reference to the common dace (''Leuciscus leuciscus''). This, like most fish called "daces", belongs to the family Cyprinidae, mostly in subfamily Leuciscinae. Daces in the Cyprinidae: * Common dace, '' Leuciscus leuciscus'' * Chinese mud carp, ''Cirrhinus chinensis'' (called "dace" in Hong Kong) or mud carp (''Cirrhinus molitorella'') * Columbia River dace, '' Ptychocheilus oregonensis'' (a pikeminnow) * Desert dace, '' Eremichthys acros'' (a monotypic genus) * European daces, genus ''Leuciscus'' * Fallfish, '' Semotilus corporalis'' (a creek chub called "dace" in Canada) * Horned dace, ''Semotilus atromaculatus'' (a creek chub) * Japanese dace ''Tribolodon hakonensis'', genus ''Tribolodon'' * Korean splendid dace, ''Coreoleuciscus splendidus'' (a monotypic genus) * Lake Candidus dace, '' Candidia barbatus'' (a monotypic genus) * Mexican daces, genus ''Evarra'' * Moapa dace, ''M ...

George Albert Boulenger
George Albert Boulenger (19 October 1858 – 23 November 1937) was a Belgian-British zoologist who described and gave scientific names to over 2,000 new animal species, chiefly fish, reptiles, and amphibians. Boulenger was also an active botanist during the last 30 years of his life, especially in the study of roses. Life Boulenger was born in Brussels, Belgium, the only son of Gustave Boulenger, a Belgian public notary, and Juliette Piérart, from Valenciennes. He graduated in 1876 from the Free University of Brussels with a degree in natural sciences, and worked for a while at the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, Brussels, as an assistant naturalist studying amphibians, reptiles, and fishes. He also made frequent visits during this time to the ''Muséum national d'Histoire naturelle'' in Paris and the British Museum in London. In 1880, he was invited to work at the Natural History Museum, then a department of the British Museum, by Dr. Albert C. L. G. Günther a ...

Karl Fedorovich Kessler
Karl Fedorovich Kessler (19 November 1815 – 3 March 1881) was a German-Russian zoologist and author of zoological taxa signed ''Kessler'', who was mostly active in Kyiv, Ukraine. He conducted most of his studies of birds in Ukrainian regions of the Russian Empire: Kiev Governorate, Volyn Governorate, Kherson Governorate, Poltava Governorate and Bessarabia. He also studied the fish of the Dniester, Dnieper, and Southern Bug rivers, and on the Ukrainian coast of the Black Sea. Kessler was one of the first zoologists to propose that mutual aid, rather than mutual struggle, was the main factor in the evolution of a species. The anarchist Peter Kropotkin later developed this theory in his book '' Mutual Aid: A Factor of Evolution''. Tribute The Kessler's gudgeon ''(Romanogobio kesslerii)'' was named after him.
