Abstract

Sequences of mitochondrial (cytochrome b) and nuclear (recombination activating gene 1–RAG1) DNA markers were obtained for two species of the genus Alburnoides, the Taskent riffle minnow A. oblongus Bulgakov 1923 and the Terek spirlin A. gmelini Bogutskaya and Coad 2009. Phylogenetic analysis revealed that A. oblongus belongs to the genus Alburnus.
