Short description
Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία
Ραχιαίες άκανθες (συνολικά) : 0; Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 11; Εδρικές άκανθες: 0; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 8. Diagnosis: Garra jordanica is closely related and geographically adjacent to G. ghorensis, from which it is distinguished by having 8 1/2 branched rays on dorsal fin (vs. 7 1/2), 33-35 + 2 lateral line scales (vs. 31-32 +2), a large round, black blotch on the flank at the middle of the posterior caudal peduncle (vs. absent), 4-7 rows of deeply embedded scales on the breast between the pectoral-fin bases (vs. no or one row, or one additional scale in the middle between the pectoral fin-base in some individuals), the pelvic fin not overlapping the anus in individuals larger than 7 cm standard length (vs. overlapping), shorter barbels and details in the arrangement of tubercles on the head (Ref. 98824).
