Arabibarbus grypus ( Heckel, 1843) View in CoL
Distribution in the area. Not endemic. Widespread in Euphrates and Tigris drainages from southern Anatolia south to Shatt Al-Arab. Also in the Qweik drainage, from where it is now extirpated.
Remarks. This is a major commercial species and seems to be overfished in large if not all parts of its range. However, data on population trends are very rare and based on fisheries statistics.
