dc.description.abstractThe karyotypes of two Anatolian endemic leuciscid species, Pseudophoxinus alii Kiiqiik, 2007 and P. elizavetae Bogutskaya, Kiiqiik & Atalay, 2007, were studied using conventional cytogenetic methods. The dip-loid chromosome numbers were invariably 2n = 50. The chromosome morphology in the karyotypes was as follows: 18 metacentric, 24 submetacentric and eight subtelo-acrocentric chromosomes in P. alii and eight metacentric, 34 submetacentric and eight subtelo-acrocentric chromosomes in P. elizavetae. Heteromorphic sex chromosomes were not observed in the two species. The largest chromosome pair in the karyotypes of P. alii and P. elizavetae was a subtelo-acrocentric. C-bands were determined on the pericentromeric regions of the most of the chromosomes in P. alii and on the pericentromeric regions of some chromosomes in P. elizavetae. Multiple nucleolus organizer regions (NORs) were observed in the two species. A review of the data on the karyotypes of 13 species of the genus Pseudophoxinus occurring in Turkey is presented.

dc.description.sponsorshipWe thank Dr S. Serkan Gicli for identifying the specimens. This study was supported by Gazi University Scientific Research Projects (Project Code: 05/2010-13) and Kirsehir Ahi Evran University Scientific Research Projects (Project Code: FBA 11-12) . The part of this study dealing with P. elizavetae was presented as a poster at FABA 2014: International Symposium on Fisheries and Aquatic Science, 25-27 September, Trabzon, Turkey, and published as a summary in the Symposium Abstract book.
