Acanthobrama Hulensis
''Acanthobrama hulensis'', sometimes known as the Hula bream, was a species of ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae. Its natural habitats were swamps and freshwater lakes in Lake Hula in northern Israel. ''Acanthobrama hulensis'' looked much like a sardine. In Israel other members of the genus often are called "sardin" in culinary terms. The deliberate draining of Lake Hula in the 1950s led to the extinction of this species, along with the cichlid fish ''Tristramella intermedia''. The Israel painted frog was believed to be extinct until a female specimen was found in 2011. ''Acanthobrama hulensis'' was last recorded in 1975. Description This species had a maximum length of and was a bottom feeder with a diet of mollusks and zoobenthos. They spawned from February to April externally.

Acanthobrama Telavivensis
''Acanthobrama telavivensis'', commonly known as the Yarkon bream or Yarkon bleak, is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish of the family Cyprinidae found only in Israel, in the Yarkon River system. Description The silver fish, which grows to a length of , was reintroduced to the Afek springs and Ein Nymphit by the Israel Nature Preservation Authority. History Throughout 1950 to 1970, there was a very sharp decline in the species population. The population was stable until a drought in 1999 which made it near-extinct. The remaining individuals were taken and bred in captivity. In 2006, these fish were re-introduced to 12 rehabilitated sites in its previous range. Since then, large populations of various sizes and ages have been found in these areas. According to the authority's chief ecologist, this shows that efforts to rehabilitate the river have succeeded. Yarkon Bleak preservation efforts began in 1999, when the population dropped to only a few hundred. The project was a ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
