discussion
Remarks. First described as A. kurui. However, as Leuciscus kurui Bogutskaya, 1995 is placed in Alburnus, A. kurui Mangit & Yerli, 2018 became a junior secondary homonym of Alburnus kurui (Bogutskaya, 1995). As both are valid species in the genus Alburnus, A carianorum is designated as a replacement name for A. kurui Mangit & Yerli, 2018.
