| contents | Redescription of Cyprinion muscatense (Teleostei: Cyprinidae) with the first phylogenetic analysis of the genus Hamid Reza Esmaeili Amir Hassan Masoumi Golnaz Sayyadzadeh Fatah Zarei James Maclaine Journal of Fish Biology AbstractMembers of the genus Cyprinion (Cypriniformes: Cyprinidae) are found in the Indus River basin west to the Arabian Peninsula and the Tigris‐Euphrates River drainages (Persian Gulf basin). The taxonomic status of Cyprinion including Cyprinion muscatense is poorly understood when compared to other cyprinid genera. C. muscatense has been considered as a member of the Cyprinion watsoni‐microphthalmum group and a valid species endemic to the Arabian Peninsula. Here, we redescribe C. muscatense based on an integrative morphological and molecular approach and freshly sampled material from several localities in the Oman Mountains ecoregion. The results showed that C. muscatense is distinguished from the other Cyprinion species in the Arabian Peninsula by having a short, thin, and slightly serrated last unbranched dorsal fin ray; the lower number of circumpeduncular scales; lateral line scales; and also scales between the lateral line and the dorsal‐fin origin. Subterminal mouth, presence of one pair of small barbels at the mouth corner, 3–4 unbranched and 9½–10½ dorsal‐fin branched rays, 12–14 pectoral‐fin rays, 7–8 pelvic‐fin rays, 2–3 unbranched and 6½–7½ branched anal‐fin rays, and 37–40 lateral line scales are other morphological characteristics of C. muscatense. C. muscatense is also well distinguished by molecular characters among its congeners. The first molecular phylogenetic analysis of the genus, covering all currently recognized Cyprinion species except for C. watsoni, is also presented. C. muscatense is resolved as the sister species to another endemic fish of the Arabian Peninsula Cyprinion mhalense, with a Kimura‐2‐Parameter model distance of 5.3%. 10.1111/jfb.15708 http://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/termsAndConditions#vor |
