INTRODUCTION the Dinaric karst region of Croatia (Banarescu, 2004; Smith and Darwall, 2006; Oikonomou et al., 2014) The Republic of Croatia is a small country with a harbours numerous endemic species that are found only land area of 56,594 km2 at the crossroads of several in Croatia, while some are also found in neighbouring European biogeographical regions: Continental, Alpine, Bosnia and Herzegovina (Ćaleta et al., 2015). Despite the Mediterranean and, on its north-east, fragments of the long tradition of ichthyology in these parts through the Panonian biogeographical region are present (EEA, 2002). 19th and 20th century (most important researchers were Croatia’s geographical position includes two river basins Johann Jakob Heckel, Rudolf Kner, Franz Steindachner, (Adriatic Sea and Black Sea basins) with an interesting Luka Trgovčević, Mijo Kišpatić, Josipa Plančić, Tihomir geological history that has resulted in one of the most Vuković, Dobrila Habeković, Milorad Mrakovčić i Tomislav diverse freshwater ichthyofaunas in Europe.

In addition to the date, the only comprehensive list of the freshwater fishes exclusively freshwater species, data are also provided on of Croatia was compiled within the freshwater fish fauna euryhaline species that inhabit brackish and transitional of Yugoslavia (Taler, 1953; Vuković and Ivanović, 1971), waters (Aphanius fasciatus, Alosa fallax, Platichthys flesus, which ceased to exist as a state in 1991, breaking up into Dicentrarchus labrax, Sparus aurata, Gobiids and Mugilids) several sovereign states lying in different biogeographical and migratory fish species (Anguilla anguilla, Petromyzon regions.

In the text of article were research, no checklist has ever been compiled of the used scientific species names while in the species list Croatian freshwater ichthyofauna. Previous publications were listed valid English names (Froese and Pauly, 2019), about the freshwater fishes of Croatia were aimed at authority and Croatian names. The list was compiled on threatened (Mrakovčić et al., 2006) or endemic (Ćaleta the basis of the latest taxonomic classifications of orders, et al., 2015) fishes. Furthermore, to date, the literature families, genera and species (Stout et al., 2016; Eschmeyer data on the freshwater fish of Croatia have not been et al., 2018a; Eschmeyer et al., 2018b; Schonhuth et al., comprehensively collected, analysed and published. 2018; Tan and Armbruster, 2018). Within each family, The objective of this review article was to collect and the genera are listed in alphabetical order. The checklist analyse all the available literature data on the freshwater includes a distribution range for each species, and data as fish of Croatia, and to draft an annotated checklist of the to whether it is an endemic, introduced or translocated species currently found in Croatia. species. The list also includes species that are considered regionally extinct (EX in the list) and unsuccessfully introduced species (UI in the list).

Abstract The Black Sea salmon Salmo labrax Pallas, 1814 is an essential species for the Turkish aquaculture sector, given increasing trends of the annual productions. To date, there are few studies on meristic and morphometric characteristics of this species. In this study, the fifth filial generation of the species was specified and studied for meristic and morphometric characteristics. The results obtained in this study were compared with available literature and a similarity was found between the study specimens and wild individuals. The morphological characteristics of any cultured species is valuable especially when a new culture generation is formed and therefore this study outcomes may provide important information to the literature.

Alburnus alborella (De Filippi, 1844)(Actinoptery GII: Cyprinidae, Alburninae) in Buško Lake Ţujo Zekić D.1*; Riđanović S.1; Spasojević P.1 Received: May 2019 Accepted: December2019 Abstract In this paper we present data about first findings of species Alburnus arborella(Bonaparte, 1841) syn. Alburnus alborella (De Filippi, 1844) (Actinoptery GII: Cyprinidae, Alburninae) in Buško Lake (Municipality Livno).In this report twenty – four specimens were cought during research period in two seasons in 2018. More specifically, trips to the catchment areas were made in spring-summer season from 12.06.2018 to 18.07.2018. and 22.11.2018.Determination of individuals was made on the basis of analysis of individual morphometric and meristic characterswith the exact length and weight of the individuals.This is the first finding of this species probably brought and introduced by fishermen.The findings of this species in Bosnia and Herzegovina have so far been confirmed in the Neretva watercourse and in the Ričica river in the Republic of Croatia.
