Journal of Ichthyology Aims and scope Submit manuscript

Abstract

Based on literature and new actual data from 2007–2012, a revised list of fish species inhabiting the Kara Sea is given. The modern ichthyofauna of the Kara Sea comprises 77 species of marine, anadromous, and freshwater fish from 24 families of 14 orders. For the first time, 12 fish species are indicated for this region.
