Luciobarbus conocephalus
(Kessler, 1872)
– Native
(
Fig. 145
)
Barbus conocephalus
Kessler
[K. F.] 1872: 50 [6];
Type
locality:
Zeravshan River,
Uzbekistan
.
Syntypes
: (6) ZMMU P–1513 (2), P–1518 (1).
Common name
: Pr: Zarde par Harirud, Orenj Hari rud, Pr: Hari barbel.
Diagnosis
:
Meristic characters
and distribution serve to identify this species.
Meristic characters
: D: IV 7–9 (8), A: III 5, P: 17–18, V: 8, GR: 8–12, LL: 57–62, TV: 48–50.
Distribution
: Hari basin (
Fig. 146
). In
Iran
, it is only just found in Harirud River.
Taxonomy
:
Berg (1949)
placed
conocephalus
in
Luciobarbus capito
as a subspecies,
Coad (1995)
regard as synonym of
L. capito
, but our unpublished (molecular and morphologic) studies showed
L. conocephalus
is a full and valid species.
Conservation
: IUCN: Not Evaluated, PC: Data Deficient. This species is distributed in
Uzbekistan
,
Turkmenistan
and
Afghanistan
in addition to
Iran
where it is limited to few small populations in Harirud River and the reservoir of Doosti Dam. There is no information available about the distribution and the conservation status of their populations in the other countries. Consequently, we believe it is not possible to objectively assess this species conservation status with the available data.
