Since the work of J.J. Heckel (1846-1849), the number of valid species has increased significantly and the systematic status of many of the species has changed, and reorganization and updating of the published information has become essential. Here we take the opportunity to provide a new and updated checklist of freshwater fishes of Iran based on literature and taxon occurrence data obtained from natural history and new fish collections. This article lists 288 species in 107 genera, 28 families, 22 orders and 3 classes reported from different Iranian basins. However, presence of 23 reported species in Iranian waters needs confirmation by specimens.

  • Rare Birds in Iran in the Late 1960S and 1970S
    Podoces, 2008, 3(1/2): 1–30 Rare Birds in Iran in the Late 1960s and 1970s DEREK A. SCOTT Castletownbere Post Office, Castletownbere, Co. Cork, Ireland. Email: [email protected] Received 26 July 2008; accepted 14 September 2008 Abstract: The 12-year period from 1967 to 1978 was a period of intense ornithological activity in Iran. The Ornithology Unit in the Department of the Environment carried out numerous surveys throughout the country; several important international ornithological expeditions visited Iran and subsequently published their findings, and a number of resident and visiting bird-watchers kept detailed records of their observations and submitted these to the Ornithology Unit. These activities added greatly to our knowledge of the status and distribution of birds in Iran, and produced many records of birds which had rarely if ever been recorded in Iran before. This paper gives details of all records known to the author of 92 species that were recorded as rarities in Iran during the 12-year period under review. These include 18 species that had not previously been recorded in Iran, a further 67 species that were recorded on fewer than 13 occasions, and seven slightly commoner species for which there were very few records prior to 1967. All records of four distinctive subspecies are also included. The 29 species that were known from Iran prior to 1967 but not recorded during the period under review are listed in an Appendix. Keywords: Rare birds, rarities, 1970s, status, distribution, Iran. INTRODUCTION Eftekhar, E. Kahrom and J. Mansoori, several of whom quickly became keen ornithologists.

  • Pierced Salt Domes in the Persian Gulf and in the Zagros Mountain Ranges

Islamic Azad University, Shiraz Branch, Shiraz, Iran. 3. Lar Consultant, Tehran, Iran. 4. Department of Geology, Faculty of basic science, Shahid Bahonar University, Kerman, Iran Received 4 February 2008; accepted: 8 September 2009 Abstract The most enigmatic problems with the nearly 200 salt domes pierced in the Persian Gulf and in the Zagros Mountain Ranges (ZMR) in southern Iran, a unique morphology in the world, have been the matter of this study, which is based on a combination of field work, enhancement of satellite and aerial photographs etc. In the ZMR, structural anomalies are frequently associated with similar facies distribution patterns. In the eastern portion of the region, emergent salt plugs of Infra-Cambrian age exhibit the same alignment patterns. Such trends bear no apparent genetic relationship to the Tertiary folding responsible for the present Zagros fold belt, but rather indicate their affinity with linear basement features which are readily observable on Land sat imagery and aerial photographs. Bending of anticlines in the competent cover rock, combined with minor strike-slip faults and horizontal displacements of parts of folded structures, strongly point to the presence of these basement faults.

  • Some Topics for Coral Reefs of the Persian Gulf
    Some topics for coral reefs of the Persian Gulf H. Rezai (PhD) Some Characteristics of the Persian Gulf • High salinity up to 41 psu in the north and 200 psu in the south • High temperature range from 16 oC in winter to 36-37 oC in summer • The narrow Strait of Hormuz prevents some larvae from entering the Gulf • Shallow Gulf, mean depth of 35 m, recorded 108 m near Lesser Tunb • Sedimentary basin, hi turbidity • Circulation of water, Mediterranean type • Pollution load • Wars The Persian Gulf is endowed with many islands. This is one of the rare places in earth where the corals can thrive at their extreme temperature with annual temperature fluctuations of > 25o C, so it can act as a laboratory for predicting Climate Change. Low diversity in terms of corals, containing possibly 100 species, a quarter of the number in the Indian Ocean, but abundant in terms of individuals, this is due to extremes in water temperature and salinity that are close to the physiological tolerance limits of many coral species, including a few species endemic to this region (Sheppard and Sheppard, 1991). Coral Reef Structure in the Persian Gulf Dominant reefs are of fringing type. Poorly developed patch reefs. Cycle of mortality, breakdown and re-growth inhibit framework accumulation (Grandcourt, ?). Coral reef development, limitation in Persian Gulf -Undergo extremes of temperature and salinity fluctuations -Undergo high levels of sedimentation and turbidity. -Tolerate high pollution load caused by to oil spillage, shipping and wars -Limited hard substrate for coral growth in the Persian Gulf. - Diseases - Human effects Notion of reef Oyster reef? Polychaete reef? So on The synonym of coral reef in the Persian language is Wrong! آبسنگهای مرجانی!! Coral reefs are not سنگفرش مرجانی Number of hard coral species in each country in the Persian Gulf.

Geo- logic situation of salt structures in Iran have determinate. According to age and geological setting of salt deposits that revealed by tectonic geomorphology methods, salt structure provinces of the Central and Southern Iran have been distinguished. Also, critical concepts of salt diapirism in the Southern Iran and Central Iran salt basins have explained. Therefore, Central Iran’s salt diapirs have triggered by tectonic forces, but salt diapirism in the Southern Iran has triggered by haloki- nesis, then it has effected by tectonic forces, especially in Zagros fold and thrust belt. Keywords Tectonic Geomorphology, Salt Structures, Diapir, Iran, Halokinesis 1. Introduction Tectonic geomorphology is the study of the interaction between tectonics and surface processes that form the structure during geologic times. Salt diapir or piercement structure with a central, nearly equidimensional salt plug, generally one to two kilometers or more in diameter, which has risen through the enclosing sediments from a mother salt bed beneath the top of the plug, is called salt dome [1].
