Abstract
In this study, the distribution and some diagnostic features of the endemic Garra culiciphaga belonging to the Cyprinidae family in the Ceyhan River systems were determined. Accordingly, the average total length of G. culiciphaga individuals is 49.58 mm, and their average weight is 1.32 g. Line lateral scales are 30-33, line transversal 8/7, and pharyngeal teeth are 3.3.5-5.3.3. G. culiciphaga has a very limited distribution in the Ceyhan River basin and has been identified from the Kumaşır Lake, Aksu Stream and Akçasu Stream. However, G. culiciphaga individuals were detected in May 2015 in Aksu stream could not encountered in the following year (April 2016) due to habitat loss.
