E. Checklists Farsi Names
?add names from Species Accounts The purpose of this list is to bring together the Farsi, English
and scientific names of the freshwater fishes of Iran. Confusion over
the names of fishes can render any study or article confusing or even
useless. Generally the best course to follow is to use the scientific
name, at least initially, and then use the common name. However,
common names are often more familiar or evocative to readers,
especially in popular and newspaper articles.
Effective management of resources as well as scientific and popular
studies and publications need a clear link between common and
scientific names. Such linkages also facilitate access to the
extensive world literature on fishes and their biology.
This is by no means a final listing; I hope to elicit a response
from readers of this section in order to add common names in Farsi to
the list.
Farsi Names
The Farsi name(s) are given below the scientific name. They have
been obtained from literature sources (listed in Coad (1995; 1999))
but primarily in discussions with Iranian ichthyologists. These names
may have a meaning if translated into English but since these are
never or very rarely used they are not translated here (translations
can be found in the Species Accounts). A prime
example would be safid mahi (= white fish) which occasionally appears
in travel and scientific literature under this English name. Confusion
has arisen over the use of this English translation since whitefish in
English scientific literature refers to members of the salmon family (Salmonidae,
usually the genus Coregonus) and not this Iranian member of the
carp family (Cyprinidae, Rutilus frisii).
Some of the names are highly original and evocative in English
translation while others are direct translations of the English names.
Interesting names include ordak mahi (= duck fish in reference to the
characteristic snout of the pike), gel-cheragh (= mud-eater or
mud-grazer in relation to feeding habits for several unrelated
fishes), gour-e khar (= striped donkey, i.e. zebra, for Aphanius
spp.) and heif-e noon (= waste of bread, i.e. valueless, used in
Khuzestan for Chondrostoma regium).
A number of Iranian species have no common Farsi name that I have
been able to discover and are indicated by a question mark (?).
Doubtful names are also indicated by a question mark. Any reader who
can supply a common name and is sure of the species
identification is asked to email me (see www.briancoad.com
for contact methods).
Ideally a preserved specimen of the fish should be sent to me for
verification to avoid confusion and misunderstandings.
Some genera and families have a common name without a unique
modifier for each species. These names are included here. I have not
added modifiers in case a reader informs me of a common name. In
future, if no common name seems to exist in Farsi, then it may be
advisable to invent one to separate the species.
Several names exist for certain species, used locally. Some common
name lists standardise a common name for each species but I have not
attempted this here. More research and feedback from readers is needed
to determine which names are the most commonly used, widespread and
acceptable before one is chosen in preference to another. The variety
of names is a regional heritage and should not be casually ignored.
Robins et al. (1991a) give reasons and criteria for
establishing a single common name for each species.
English Names
The English name(s) in commonest or official use are
given here in parentheses below the Farsi name. Some Iranian species
lack English names for the simple reason that these fishes do not
occur in English-speaking countries nor are they widely known as
aquarium, food or sport fishes.
A single English name has not been selected as the
primary aim of this work is to link scientific and Farsi names and
secondarily to indicate the English names of the species as an aid in
data retrieval and comprehension.
Note that many English names are composed of a noun
and a modifying adjective. For simplicity the noun is not repeated
each time with its adjective so there is "common, Oriental,
eastern, bronze or carp bream" rather than "common bream,
Oriental bream, eastern bream, bronze bream and carp bream". A
semicolon (;) may separate words which are not part of a series of
adjectives. Thus "beluga; great, giant or European sturgeon"
indicates that "beluga" is a fish name by itself while
sturgeon may have the adjectives great, giant and European.
Reference sources include Robins et al. (1991a;
1991b) for North American native species and species important to
North Americans, Berg (1948-1949), Lindberg and Heard (1972) and
Ricker (1973) for the former U.S.S.R. and adjacent countries, and OECD
(1995) for official names used by the Food and Agriculture
Organization of the United Nations.
For Caspian Sea basin species, the name is often taken
from the common usage in Berg (1948-1949) where the Russian name has
been given its translation. Berg's work has been widely used as a
reference source on fishes in the Caspian Sea and adjacent basins
since the original Russian work is also available in English
translation. Note that some Russian names have no direct equivalent in
English and the Cyrillic orthography is converted to English. Purely
Russian names are not included when well-known English names are
available, e.g. the Russian "nalim" for burbot or eelpout (Lota
lota).
Some Russian names are in common use in the Caspian
basin of Iran even though there are Farsi names for the fishes. The
northern fisheries were once controlled by Russian experts. An example
of this is Huso huso, the beluga (a Russian word but also used
in Farsi and English) or fil mahi (purely Farsi). Alternative names,
such as great or giant sturgeon, do not appear commonly in Iranian
scientific and popular works despite being more descriptive and
evocative in English and having the advantage of not being confused
with the whale of the same name. Similarly, kutum (safid mahi, Rutilus
frisii kutum) is often used in scientific literature as a common
name and is included here although there is a less well-known English
version (Southern Caspian roach).
An exhaustive listing of Russian, Turkmen and
Azerbaijani names is not given here and the reader is referred to the
Russian edition of Berg (1948-1949) and Lindberg and Heard (1972) for
further details. Some names in Gilaki and Mazanderani from the Caspian
coast of Iran have been given from sources in the Encyclopaedia
Iranica, Columbia University Press, New York (?website). Some
names from Turkmenistan and Azerbaijan may be used in Iran, especially
near the borders, but I have no information on this usage.
Similarly Heckel (1843, 1846-1849) lists a number of
Arabic names of fishes which also occur in Iran, although these works
are now probably out of date. More recent common names can be found in
Khalaf (1961), Mahdi (1962), Al-Nasiri and Hoda (1976) and other works
on Iraqi fishes (see Coad and Al-Hassan (1988) for a bibliography on
these fishes). Arabic common names are used in Khuzestan and are
included here, modified in Farsi, where this usage is known.
A summary of works on Turkish fishes is found in Coad
and Kuru (1986). Fishes of Pakistan are summarised in Mirza (1972,
1990) with a bibliography on this fauna in Mirza (1978). I am not
aware if common names from Pakistan are used widely in Iranian
Baluchestan and so these are not included here.
The English common name presents problems where
several subspecies, "morpha" or "forms" have been
described within a species. This is almost entirely a problem of the
Caspian Sea basin where Russian workers have distinguished many
subspecies of the families Clupeidae and Cyprinidae in particular.
Each of these has a common name, at least in Russian, usually relating
to the locality of the subspecies. Some recent studies have
demonstrated that these subspecies are often ill-founded and even
distinct species have been shown to be the same as more widespread
ones outside the Caspian Sea basin (Coad, 1996b). I have listed all
the available names in English including those with adjectives which
seem to be geographically inappropriate. For example, Barbus
brachycephalus is called the Aral barbel in Robins et al.
(1991b), presumably based on the type subspecies found in the Aral Sea
basin. A distinct subspecies in the Caspian Sea basin, Barbus
brachycephalus caspius, is more appropriately called the Caspian
barbel here. Furthermore, many of these Russian common names for
subspecies and their English translations are "book names" -
artificial constructs not used by local people.
An additional problem lies with nomenclatural changes
in the scientific name. Alosa pontica, a member of the family
Clupeidae, was previously thought to inhabit only the waters of the
Black Sea and was appropriately named in English as the Pontic shad or
Black Sea herring. As now understood this species is also found in the
Caspian Sea (albeit as a distinct subspecies) and the English name is
inappropriate. In such cases I have also retained the older name for
the Caspian Sea species or subspecies. Conversely when a species or
subspecies previously known only from, for example, the Caspian Sea
has been shown to be synonymous with a more widespread species then
the name of the widespread species is added to the list. An example is
the short-snouted pipefish, Syngnathus abaster, once regarded
as a distinct subspecies in another species (Syngnathus
nigrolineatus caspius or Caspian pipefish).
Scientific Names
The most recent scientific name is given for each
species. It should be understood that scientific names are dynamic,
changing as our understanding of the relationships of fishes changes.
A recent reference on the scientific names and nomenclatorial problems
of Iranian freshwater fishes is Coad (1995). The current list also
serves as an updated version of that work. Changes include the
placement of Pseudophoxinus persidis in the genus Leuciscus
(after N. Bogutskaya, pers. comm., 1995) and the distinction of
Aphanius persicus (Coad, 1996a). Lazara (1995) proposes the use
of the genus Lebias over Aphanius in Cyprinodontidae but
Kottelat (1997) disagrees. Kottelat (1997) also demonstrates that Sander
has priority over Stizostedion and along with Eschmeyer (1998)
lists other minor changes. Elvira (1997) resurrects Chondrostoma
cyri. Nalbant and Bianco (1998) describe 5 new species of
Balitoridae from Iran.
The arrangement of families and orders also changes
with time and this too is reflected here. The arrangement has been
changed from that used in Coad (1995) to accord with Nelson (1994),
which was not then available.
Coverage
A brief listing of distribution is given for each
species after the scientific name based on drainage basins (see Coad
(1995) for map). The limits of this article are the political
boundaries of Iran including the Caspian Sea south of a line drawn
between the borders of Iran and Azerbaijan in the west and Iran and
Turkmenistan in the east. The Caspian Sea has a salt concentration
about one-third seawater and the fauna there is a mixture of
freshwater and brackish or marine species.
A few species in the south are included although they
are thought of as primarily marine. An example is a single shark
species which can reside in fresh waters and has considerable
importance since it preys on humans (Coad and Papahn, 1988). The scientific name list contains more marine species that may enter fresh
waters.

Scientific Names The first Checklist is for all Iranian species followed by Checklists according to drainage basins. The first and main Checklist gives the classification of the Iranian freshwater fish species
following the arrangement of families in Nelson (1994). The Species Accounts do not give a higher classification and are arranged by families and genera.
E = Exotic, M = Marine, entering freshwater from the Persian Gulf, but not normally resident (Caspian Sea species regarded as "freshwater"), N = reported from
neighbouring countries, ? = probably a misidentification. Details on sources for these records are in the Species Accounts.

Summary of Native Distributions
(% in parentheses)
Threatened Species Under construction.
Types The nominal species originally described from Iran are summarised below by
family, by year of description and then alphabetically. Some
taxa have no type material (e.g. Eugen Keyserling did not bring
specimens back to Europe) or type material has not been located
despite a thorough search and is marked with an asterisk (*). Types
whose existence is uncertain are indicated by a question mark (?).
Type material examined by me is indicated by a plus sign (+)
and type material not seen by me by an octothorpe (#). The current allocation of
taxa is given in parentheses, those without comment being valid; material of
uncertain status is marked with a tilde (~). Details on
these fishes can be found in the Species Accounts, where other type material
examined for its importance in studying the Iranian ichthyofauna is
listed. See also Eschmeyer's Catalog
of Fishes (www.calacademy.org/research/ichthyology/catalog/).

F. Glossaries
Geographical Glossary
The following glossary of geographical and other terms is mostly in Farsi (which includes words
taken from Turkic, Kurdish and Arabic) with a few Russian words, all
of which appear on maps, in the literature and in the text of the
"Freshwater Fishes of Iran" web site. They may be of help to those
unfamiliar with these languages and avoid tautologies such as Safidrud River.
There are various diacritical marking systems for
Farsi but these do not always transfer accurately across platforms,
appearing as strange symbols or gaps in text. I
have eschewed the use of these as being irrelevant for native speakers
of Farsi and too confusing for those unfamiliar with this language.

G. Bibliography This section contains all the papers and books referred to in the text of the web site on Freshwater Fishes of Iran but also attempts to be a bibliography
on the freshwater fishes of Iran and their environment. A partial version of this bibliography was first posted on 10 September 1996 and maintained by Yazdan Keivany, then at the University of Alberta,
Edmonton.
The large number of articles listed here, the length of many, their
limited availability, and costs involved make it impossible to loan xeroxes
except in restricted cases. Please use your interlibrary loan service.
There has been a rapid increase in studies on fishes of Iran, starting in the
1990s. Prior to 1900, this bibliography lists less than 100 publications
relevant to this work, many not strictly on Iranian fishes. On a decadal basis,
it is only in the 1960s that publications exceed 100 and by the 1990s are an
order of magnitude larger. Many articles are available as an abstract at
www.sid.ir/En/Index.asp.
Use of diacritical marks in various languages in this Bibliography may not always
transfer across platforms. As a consequence, some diacritical marks can appear as
gibberish letters (with apologies to colleagues in eastern Europe and Turkey).
Note that articles published in the "Journal of Ichthyology"
are translations from the original Russian journal "Voprosy Ikhtiologii"
although pagination (and sometimes issue number) are not the same. Only
"Journal of Ichthyology" pagination is cited here but readers may
wish to avail themselves of the Russian versions of these articles (however
some earlier issues of "Voprosy Ikhtiologii" are only available
in Russian). Prior to 1970 the English translation was called "Problems
of Ichthyology". Year of publication as marked on the cover of each
issue was the one cited here although internal evidence indicates translated
issues were often published in the following year, a delay presumably because
of translation time required. The date thus used is the Russian date of
publication which is the relevant one for the few taxon descriptions appearing in this journal.
There is a moderately extensive grey literature on Iran, mostly manuscript
reports of the Department of the Environment, Tehran. Some of these are
in English and were written by Peace Corps workers in the 1960s and 1970s.
I have cited all those I came across but the listings are by no means exhaustive.
Additionally, magazines and newspapers in Iran carry articles on fishes.
Regretfully, a complete survey of these was not possible.
The internet now carries English translations of Iranian newspapers
and press releases. The URL (Universal Resource Locator) for these and other sites having information
on Iran are cited directly in the text and not in this bibliography.
Note that links often change or are no longer functional and these textual
references serve only to document a source. Generally the date when they were
downloaded is given. They may still be accessible but are
not hot linked in the text. Some papers cited in this Bibliography have only
been seen in their online version and pagination of the original, printed version is unknown.
Transliteration of personal names into English from other languages,
notably Farsi, often gives variant spellings. When I am aware
that the same person is meant, the original journal spelling is given followed
by (sic) to indicate that the author may appear under another spelling.
The same (sic) is also used to denote misspellings in titles. Note that
family names in Farsi may appear in two forms, a single name or a
double-barreled name (separated or hyphenated), and these are variously used in
papers. Personal names may be abbreviated to a single letter when appearing in
English but sometimes appears as two letters to accord with the Persian alphabet
(e.g. there are single letters s and sh).
The "Iranian Journal of Fisheries Sciences" (from 7(2) 1998 onwards) also
appeared earlier as the "Iranian Fisheries Scientific Journal" (3(2) 1994 to 7(1)
1998), and earlier still as "Iranian Fisheries Journal", "Iranian Fisheries Scientific
Bulletin" and "Iranian Fisheries Bulletin", is published in Farsi with English
abstracts. It sometimes appears as the "Iranian Scientific Fisheries Journal"
in Iranian abstracting journals and websites. The "Iranian Journal of Fisheries Sciences" (starting in January 1999
with volume 1(1)) is published in English with Farsi abstracts.
The Iranian Fisheries Research Organization (formerly Iranian Fisheries Research
and Training Organization) publishes these journals and has a website with lists of publications.
The website
http://www.sid.ir/En/Index.asp has lists of publications in Iranian journals and abstracts,
both in English, as well as in Farsi.
Students of Iranian fishes should also consult the
Freshwater Fishes of Iraq website for its
Bibliography as this includes
additional and complementary studies on species shared with Iran.
