Comments

Known only from the Iberian Peninsula (Ref. 119049). Population is declining due to introduction of exotic fish predators, water pollution, habitat destruction and its utilization as live bait for angling (although this is prohibited by law). Occurs in Ruidera Lakes (Ref. 27858) and Albufera de Valencia (as Cobitis haasi, Ref. 11240). Also Ref. 6376, 26100, 27858.

Status of threat: Vulnerable(Ref. 119049).
