Review and Updated Checklist of Freshwater Fishes of Iran: Taxonomy, Distribution and Conservation Status

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. -

The African Butterfly Peacock Aulonocara Jacobfreibergi “Eureka Red” by John Moyles
The African Butterfly Peacock Aulonocara jacobfreibergi “Eureka Red” By John Moyles Aulonocara jacobfreibergi (Johnson, 1974) is also called the African butterfly peacock and the fairy peacock. They are endemic to Malawi and are found throughout the lake of the same name. There are several geographical variants of the Aulonocara species in the hobby, including Eureka, Mamela, Otter Point, Hongi Island, Cape Kaiser, Lemon Jake, among others. These should never be housed together as they will readily cross-breed. Only one geographical race should be kept in the same aquarium. Description Males of this species differ from most other Peacocks in their broad, wide white dorsal and caudal fin margins. Females are easily confused with other peacock females, because they are grayish-brown in color with vertical banding on the body and have rounded anal and dorsal fins. Butterfly peacocks are further distinguished from other Peacocks by their large size. They can grow to lengths of up to 8 or 9 inches, but often can breed at half that size. Another distinguishing characteristic of the Butterfly Peacock is its moderate to deeply forked tail fin, which gives it the appearance of a swallow's tail. The “Eureka” variant is an aquarium strain that was developed by line breeding specimens from Otter Point, Malawi. The males have blue throughout head, body and fins. Lower half of the head is blue and the upper part of the dorsal region is orange/red. Anal fin may show red. Dorsal fin has the trademark white/light blue blaze. Diet Butterfly peacocks are specialized feeders. In the wild they mostly consume zooplankton (insect larvae and crustaceans) in the wild. -
