Description

Squalius illyricus Heckel & Kner, 1858

Vernacular names

Ilirski klen. Illyrian chub.

Remarks

Hamzić (2024) mentioned this species for BiH, but it is endemic to the Krka River and Cetina River catchments in Croatia only (Ćaleta et al. 2019) and is therefore not included in the list of fishes from BiH.
