The Amur ide (Leuciscus waleckii). also known as Amur chebak ^[4] is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Leuciscidae. This species is found in the Amur River basin in Russia, Mongolia, China and Korea. The population found in Hulun Lake is capable of tolerating the very high levels of alkalinity in the lake. The transcriptome of the species has been sequenced in order to better understand this tolerance. ^[5]
