Abstract

Abstract Records of exotic and transplanted fish species in the Tigris-Euphrates basin are reviewed and new records for Pseudorasbora parva (Cyprinidae) are documented. At least 17 species have been reported although not all have established permanent populations. Large scale movements of fishes are being carried out in this basin and the spread of exotics, with all the attendant dangers to native species and their ecosystems, has increased markedly in recent years.
