Abstract

This study was carried out
to provide a detailed osteological structure of the newly described crested
loach, Paracobitis persa. For this purpose, ten specimens were collected
from the Malsosjan spring, in the Kor River basin and fixed in 5% buffered
formalin. After clearing and staining, their skeletal structure was examined.
The results were compared to the other members of the family Nemacheilidae
particularly P. hyrcanica and P. iranica. Based on the results, P.
persa can be distinguished from other members of this family by a
combination of characters, including having lacking sesamoid ossifications,
having six hypurals, a triangular-shaped lateral ethmoid with pointed ends,
alveolar bony capsule, no contact between retroarticular and dental, lack of
the pre-ethmoid-I and basibrancial-4.
