Post Graduate College, Mansehra, Pakistan 2Department of Botany, Govt. Post Graduate College, Mansehra, Pakistan 3Department of Zoology, Govt. Degree College, Oghi, Pakistan E-mail: [email protected] Received 12 August 2020; Accepted 20 September 2020; Published 1 December 2020 Abstract Ichthyofaunal composition is the most important and essential biotic component of an aquatic ecosystem. There is worldwide distribution of fresh water fishes. Pakistan is blessed with a diversity of fishes owing to streams, rivers, dams and ocean. In freshwater bodies of the country about 193 fish species were recorded. There are about 30 species of fish which are commercially exploited for good source of proteins and vitamins. The fish marketing has great socio economic value in the country. Unfortunately, fish fauna is declining at alarming rate due to water pollution, over fishing, pesticide use and other anthropogenic activities. Therefore, about 20 percent of fish population is threatened as endangered or extinct. All Mashers are ‘endangered’, notably Tor putitora, which is also included in the Red List Category of International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN) as Endangered. Mashers (Tor species) are distributed in Southeast Asian and Himalayan regions including trans-Himalayan countries like Pakistan and India. The heavy flood of July, 2010 resulted in the minimizing of Tor putitora species Khyber Pakhtunkhwa and the fish is now found extinct from river Swat.

E-mail: [email protected] Received: September 24, 2015; Revised received: April 7, 2016; Accepted: June 5, 2016 Abstract: The present study on fish biodiversity of Haryana state was carried out during 2011 to 2014. A total number of 59 fish species inhabits the freshwaters of this state. Maximum number of fish species belonged to the order Cypriniformes (35) followed by the order Siluriformes (12) and Perciformes (8). The orders Beloniformes, Clupeiformes, Osteoglossiformes and Synbranchiformes were represented by only one species each. Out of 59 fish species, 2 are endangered, 11 vulnerable, 28 have lower risk of threat, 8 exotic and 4 fish species have lower risk least concern. The conservation status of six fish species has not been evaluated so far, hence they cannot be included in any of the IUCN categories at this moment. Family Cyprinidae alone contributed 32 fish species followed by Bagridae family. Fish species Parapsilorhynchus discophorus was observed for the first time in Haryana waters. This species is the native of Kaveri river basin, the occurrence of this species in river Yamuna may be attributed to some religious activity of people. A decline in fish diversity has been recorded from 82 species in 2004 to 59 species in the present study in the year 2014.

For the taxonomic placement of this species among the Labeonin fishes, molecular characterization is conducted by using mitochondrial 16SrRNA gene sequences. Partial sequences of mito. 16SrRNA gene of fifteen cyprinid species of the sub-family Labeoninae were downloaded from NCBI Genbank. The analysed nucleotide sequence lengths were 538 bp. In a total of 811 characters, 194 were conserved sites (monomorphic) and 347 were variable sites (polymorphic) and out of 347 variable sites, 73 were parsimony informative sites and 274 singleton sites. The nucleotide frequencies are 31.4% (A), 22.57% (T), 24.00% (C) and 21.96% (G). The transition/transversion bias (R) is 2.51. The overall mean distance is 0.083. The dendogram constructed by Neighbour-Joining tree have three clusters which can indicate the taxonomic positions of Bangana dero . Key words: Labeoninae, Mitochondrial 16SrRNA gene, Molecular phylogeny, Taxonomic relationship INTRODUCTION complete. Lateral line scales 40-42.
