| Quote | Pr: Siyah mahi Harat, En: Herat scarper; Diagnosis: Two set of barbels easiest way to identified this species from other species of this genus in Iran. Meristic characters: D: III–IV 7–8 (7), A: III 5, P: 16–18 (18), V: 8, GR: 16–20, LL: 46–54, TV: 40=43(41). IUCN: Not Evaluated, PC: Least Concern. Even if this species is widespread in its distribution range, the recent years droughts in the Harirud basin has destroyed many of its habitats. It occurs in more than 10 independent populations and is not thought to have declined (or will decline) fast enough to qualify for NT or any other threat category. Therefore, we classified it as Least Concern. |
