Abstract excerpt
This work summarized the results of comparative chromosomal study of Cobitis fish from 13 locations in Poland. At least two distinct species C. taenia and C. elongatoides were cytogenetically recognized. The populations of C. taenia were detected in only three lakes located in northern Poland.
