Von] 1861: 19 [22]; Type locality: Harirud River at Herat , Afghanistan . No types saved. Common name : Pr: Kopor kafzi Harirud, En: Hari gudgeon. Diagnosis : A naked breast, 16 circumpeduncular scales and 6–7 irregularly shaped, black or brown blotches on back behind dorsal fin base. Meristic characters : D: III 7, A: III 5, P: 14–17, V: 7, GR: 5–6, LL: 41–42, TV: 38–39. Distribution : Hari basin ( Fig. 184 ). Found in Hari, Kalat, Nobahar and Golbahar Rivers. Taxonomy : Coad (1981) synonymised with Gobio gobio but Mousavi-Sabet et al. (2016) recognize as a valid species. Conservation : IUCN: Not Evaluated, PC: Data Deficient. This species is distributed in Turkmenistan and Afghanistan in addition to Iran where its populations are only found in few points in Kalat and Nobahar rivers. There is no information available about the distribution and the conservation status of their populations in the other two countries. Therefore, we believe more data are needed to objectively assess this species conservation status.
