There was no difference in size between the two species. However, the difference was significant between them in shape. The head of C. macrostomus is longer in height while its dorsal fin is located a bit forward and caudal peduncle is wider compared to C. kais. On the other hand, the body depth of C. kais is greater and its lateral line end is shorter. Considering the geometric morphometric differences, these two species can be identified and distinguished easily.eninfo:eu-repo/semantics/closedAccessCyprinionBigmouth LotakFish Kings2d LandmarkMorphologyArticle261A872877WOS:000395724300038Q4
