"The fishes of the inland waters of Lesbos Island, Greece"Abstract
Four freshwater fish species have been recently recorded from Lesbos Island, Greece. Oxynoemacheilus theophilii, new species, is distinguished from congeners by its stout caudal peduncle and colour pattern. Petroleuciscus smyrnaeus, Squalius cii and Barbus pergamonensis are recorded for the fi rst time in ‘European’ waters. Petroleuciscus smyrnaeus had already been recorded, however, under the name Leuciscus borysthenicus. Squalius cii is redescribed, based on material from Lesbos Island. As expected from the island’s location along the Turkish coast, the Lesbos’ fi hes have close affinities with the western Anatolian fauna. Under the present knowledge, O. theophilii is known from a single locality and is severely threatened by habitat degradation that is caused mainly by water abstraction and pollution.
