Overview

This study identifies a new population of aphanius fasciatus in Croatia, highlighting genetic diversity and conservation threats.

Key Points

  • The new population of aphanius fasciatus was found in Šćuza Bay, Croatia, indicating expanding distribution.
  • Moderate genetic diversity was observed in the new population, greater than in other eastern Adriatic populations.
  • Phylogenetic analysis utilized cytochrome b gene sequences to assess relationships among populations.
  • Habitat degradation is the primary threat to the survival of the newly identified population.
