Freshwater fishes (Petromyzonti, Elasmobranchii, and Actinopteri) of Bosnia and Herzegovina: an updated inventory on the biodiversity and distribution

discussion

Remarks Described based on anatomical comparisons of isolated geographic populations of specimens previously identified as Telestes metohiensis (Bogutskaya et al. 2012). However, according to molecular data, some specimens identified as T. dabar are actually T. metohiensis (Buj et al. 2017). Furthermore, Reier et al. (2022) recognized both species as distinct based on molecular data. Occurs only in the underground waters of Dabarsko Polje (Eastern Herzegovina) (Bogutskaya et al. 2012).

description

Description. Morphometric data are summarised in Table 1 a, selected counts in Tables 2 - 4. General appearance can be seen in Figs 1 a and 2 a. Body compressed, elon gate. Caudal-peduncle depth only slightly less than half maximum body depth; head length greater than maximum body depth. Eye small, its diameter smaller than snout length. Snout fleshy, slightly to markedly projecting beyond upper lip (similar to a feature Kottelat and Freyhof [2007: fig. 39] called the " rostral cap, " which covers all or part of upper lip); snout terminating laterally in prominent crease along anterior edge of first infraorbital. Mouth subterminal, tip of mouth cleft at level of ventral margin of eye or, more frequently, below it. Lower jaw-quadrate junction at vertical through anterior half of eye. Length of lower jaw 10 - 12 % SL or 36 - 41 % HL, or 102 - 132 % depth of operculum. Dorsal fin with 71 / 2 (9 specimens), 81 / 2 (151) or 91 / 2 (1) branched rays, 81 / 2 in holotype. Dorsal-fin origin above posterior end of pelvic-fin base. Anal fin with 81 / 2 (153) or 91 / 2 (8) branched rays, 81 / 2 in holotype. Outer margin of anal fin slightly concave or almost straight. Caudal fin moderately for
