Alburnoides kubanicus, the Kuban spirlin, [1] is a species of freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae.
It is endemic to the Kuban and Laba River drainages in Russia. [2]
The Kuban is a river in Russia that flows through the Western Caucasus and drains into the Sea of Azov. The Kuban runs mostly through Krasnodar Krai for 660 kilometres (410 mi), but also in the Karachay–Cherkess Republic, Stavropol Krai and the Republic of Adygea.
Lake Kuş or Lake Manyas is a lake in western Turkey, located in the Bandırma region. It is a shallow nutrient-rich freshwater lake fed by groundwater and four streams. Small deltas have formed where the latter enter the lake, comprising extensive marshes and tree-lined riverbanks. Narrow belts of reed Phragmites fringe much of the lake. Water is abstracted for factory use and for irrigation. Cattle and sheep grazing are common along the lake shores.
Alburnoides bipunctatus, known vernacularly as the schneider, spirlin, bleak, riffle minnow, and others, is a species of small freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found in Afghanistan, Armenia, Austria, Azerbaijan, Belarus, Belgium, Bulgaria, Czech Republic, Croatia, Estonia, France, Georgia, Germany, Hungary, Iran, Latvia, Lithuania, Moldova, the Netherlands, North Macedonia, Poland, Romania, Russia, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, Switzerland, Turkey, Ukraine, and Uzbekistan.

Alburnoides is a genus of cyprinid fishes native to Europe and Asia. Many species are known as riffle minnows or spirlins.
Squalius alburnoides is a species of fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found in Portugal and Spain. Its natural habitats are rivers and intermittent rivers. It may be threatened by habitat loss.
Squalius is a genus of fish in the family Cyprinidae found in Europe and Asia. Hybridization is not rare in the Cyprinidae, including this genus. S. alburnoides is known to be of ancient hybrid origin, with the paternal lineage deriving from a prehistoric species related to Anaecypris; the latter mated with ancestral S. pyrenaicus. Present-day S. alburnoides mates with sympatric congeners of other species.
The Pontic shad, also referred to as the Black Sea shad or Kerch shad, is a species of clupeid fish in the genus Alosa, native to the Black Sea and Sea of Azov basins.
The riffle minnow is a North American species of cyprinid freshwater fish. It inhabits riffles in warm streams of medium to large size, in the states of Alabama, Georgia, and Tennessee, above the Fall Line. Long and slender, it averages about 3.5 inches (8.9 cm) in length. The riffle minnow is olive on top, and white below.
The Transcaucasian spirlin is a fish species in the family Cyprinidae. It is widespread in the Western Transcaucasia and rivers of the Black Sea coast in Turkey westward to the Kızılırmak River. It prefers rivers and streams with fast-running shallow water over gravel, pebbles, or rocks.
Alburnoides eichwaldii, also known as the South Caspian sprilin or Kura chub, is a fish species in the family Cyprinidae. It is widespread in Western Asia in the river drainages of the southwestern Caspian coast from Samur down to rivers of the Lenkoran Province in Azerbaijan. It prefers streams and rivers in the foothills, with well oxygenated, fast-flowing waters, and spawns on gravel in swift currents.
Alburnoides rossicus also known as the Russian spirlin is a species of freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is found in Dniester, South Bug and Dnieper River in the northern Sea of Azov coast and Don River drainages in the Black Sea basin, also Volga River, Caspian Sea basin from upper reaches in Tver' Province and upper reaches of Oka River downstream to Kama River and rivers and lakes of Samara Province.

It is a benthopelagic temperate freshwater fish, up to 9 cm in length. It was originally named as a subspecies of Alburnoides bipunctatus. It is threatened by non-indigenous species of fish, many of which have been introduced into Lake Ohrid.
The Manyas spirlin is a species of minnow that is endemic to the Simav River drainage of Lake Kuş, also known as Lake Manyas, in Turkey. It may become threatened as its range is densely inhabited and increasingly industrialized.
Alburnoides gmelini, the Dagestan spirlin, is a fish species of the family Cyprinidae, known from the western Caspian coast of southern Russia. It can be differentiated from its cogenerates by differences in fin ray and vertebral counts, together with other morphological characters. The specific bane honours Samuel Gottlieb Gmelin, a Russian-German naturalist who travelled through the River Don area and the Caucasus region and along the western and southern Caspian Sea coasts between 1768 and 1774.
Alburnoides petrubanarescui, is a fish species of the family Cyprinidae, known from Iran. It can be differentiated from its cogenerates by differences in fin ray and vertebral counts, together with other morphological characters.

Alburnoides maculatus is a species of small freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is endemic to the Crimea Peninsula.

Bryconops gracilis is a small species of freshwater fish from the rivers of South America. It is one of multiple species for which the common name "lambari" is used. Though not well-studied, it has been re-described in recent years in order to differentiate it from Bryconops alburnoides, a congener to which it bears a strong resemblance.
