A Bibliography of the Fishes of the Tigris-Euphrates Basin

Bibliographie der Fische des Euphrat - Tigris - Beckens

by Brian W. Coad and Lalth A. J. al·Hassan

Introduction

The Tigris-Euphrates basin is the major drainage basin of the Middle East, flowing through Turkey, Syria, Iraq and Iran. Its ichthyofauna provides a useful source of food and has been studied by biologists and systematists. The literature on this fauna is scattered through journals and books published in the Middle East and in many foreign countries and this is the first attempt to bring it all together. The bibliography comprises the principal systematic, distributional and biological works on the freshwater fishes ofthe Tigris-Euphrates basin. Some extralimital papers are included to facilitate study of this fauna as are revisio­ nary works which have an application to this basin. A more extensive bibliography on the fishes of Iran and their environ­ ment is in preparation (CoAD, MS). CoAD and KURU (1986) provide a bibliography on the fishes ofTurkey. Usually, the titel was cited in its original language. How­ ever, for articles in Arabic and Russian the title was translated into English or, if available, the title of the English summary was used. EinfUhrung

Das Euphrat - Tigris - Becken ist das wichtigste Gewiisser­ system des Mittleren Ostens. das die Liinder Tiirkei. Syrien. lrak und Iran umfaBt. Die Fischfauna dieser Gewiisser stellt eine wichtige Nahrungsgrundlage in den Anrainerstaaten dar und ist und war der Gegenstand zahlreicher biologischer Untersuchun­ gen. Diese Literatur ist auf zahlreiche Zeitschriften und Biicher sowohl im Nahen und Mittleren Osten selbst. als auch im Aus­ land verstreut. Dies ist ein Versuch. eine Obersicht iiber all diese Arbeiten zu geben. Die Bibliographie umfaBt Arbeiten zur Syste­ matik. Verbreitung und zur Biologie der SiiBwasserfische des Euphrat-Tigris-Beckens. Einige wichtige Arbeiten. die sich auf Nachbargebiete beziehen. wurden mit aufgenommen. ebenso wie Revisionen. die Material des Euphrat-Tigris-Beckens einschlie­ Ben bzw. die auf dieses Gebiet Anwendung finden. Eine ausffihr­ liche Bibliographie der Fische des Iran ist von COAD in Vorbe­ reitung, eine solche der Fische der Tiirkei wurde jiingst von COAD und KURU (1986) publiziert. In der Regel wurde der Titel einer Arbeit in der Orginal­ sprache zitiert. Bei Publikationen in Arabisch und Russisch jedoch wurde der Titel ins Englische iibersetzt bzw. der Titel der englischen Zusammenfassung herangezogen. ABBASOV, G. S.
