The sampling carried out seasonally by using the methods or electroshocker, castnet and seine-net with the mesh size of 5 mm. The samples were fixed and preserved in 10% formaline and transferred to the laboratory for further biological studies. Among the all identified fishes, there were 2 species and one subspecies belong to Barbus genuse. namely: B. mursa, B. capito and B. lacerta cyri. The subspecies of B. lacerta cyri had more abundance than two other species. Also, B. capito has big enough size as commercial value and sport fishing.http://isfj.areo.ir/article_115636_en.htmlBARBUS; East Azarbaijan Province; Iran
