Barbatula Zetensis
''Barbatula zetensis'', also known as the Zeta stone loach, is a species of Cypriniformes fish in the genus ''Barbatula''. It is found in the drainage of the River Morača in the Lake Skadar basin in Montenegro. It is common in streams and rivers with stone beds A bed is a piece of furniture that is used as a place to sleep, rest, and relax. Most modern beds consist of a soft, cushioned mattress on a bed frame. The mattress rests either on a solid base, often wood slats, or a sprung base. Many be ....

Cypriniformes
Cypriniformes is an order of ray-finned fish, which includes many families and genera of cyprinid ( carps and their kin) fish, such as barbs, loaches, botias, and minnows (among others). Cypriniformes is an "order-within-an-order", placed under the superorder Ostariophysi—which is also made up of cyprinid, ostariophysin fishes. The order contains 11–12 families (with some authorities having listed as many as 23), over 400 genera, and more than 4,250 named species; new species are regularly described, and new genera are recognized frequently.Eschmeyer, W.N., Fong, J.D. (2015Species by family/subfamilyin the Catalog of Fishes, California Academy of Sciences (retrieved 2 July 2015) Cyprinids are most diverse in South and Southeast Asia and are entirely absent from Australia and South America.Nelson (2006) At 112 years old, the longest-lived cypriniform fish documented is the bigmouth buffalo.

Barbatula
''Barbatula'' is a genus of fish in the family (biology), family Nemacheilidae native to Europe and Asia.Kottelat, M. (2012)Conspectus cobitidum: an inventory of the loaches of the world (Teleostei: Cypriniformes: Cobitoidei). ''Raffles Bulletin of Zoology, Suppl. No. 26: 1-199.'' They are found in streams, rivers and lakes, and the genus also includes Europe's only cavefish, which only was discovered in the Danube Sinkhole, Danube–Aachtopf system in Germany in 2015. ''Barbatula'' formerly included many more species, but these have been moved to other genera, notably ''Oxynoemacheilus''. Species These are the currently recognized species in this genus: * ''Barbatula altayensis'' Zhu Song-Quan, S. Q. Zhu, 1992 * ''Barbatula barbatula'' (Carl Linnaeus, Linnaeus, 1758) (Stone loach) * ''Barbatula cobdonensis'' (Aleksey Nikolaevich Gundriser, Gundriser 1973) * ''Barbatula compressirostris'' (Nikolai Arkadewich Warpachowski, Warpachowski, 1897) * ''Barbatula conilobus'' Artem M.

Lake Skadar
Lake Skadar or Lake Scutari (, ; cnr-Cyrl-Latn, Скадарско језеро, Skadarsko jezero, )also called Lake Shkodra (and ''Lake Shkodër'')lies on the border of Albania and Montenegro, and is the largest lake in Southern Europe. It is named after the Albanian city of Shkodër which lies at its southeastern coast. It is a karst lake. The Montenegrin section of the lake and surrounding land have been designated as a national park, while the Albanian part constitutes a nature reserve and a Ramsar site. Geography Lake Skadar is the largest lake in the Balkan Peninsula with a surface area that seasonally fluctuates between and . Lake Skadar itself is located in the western Balkan region. The lake is located in the border area between Montenegro and Albania, the Montenegrin share of the area of the lake is larger than the Albanian one. The lake's water level also varies seasonally from above sea level. The lake extends northwest to southeast, and it is approximately l ...

River Bed
A streambed or stream bed is the bottom of a stream or river and is confined within a channel or the banks of the waterway. Usually, the bed does not contain terrestrial (land) vegetation and instead supports different types of aquatic vegetation (aquatic plant), depending on the type of streambed material and water velocity. Streambeds are what would be left once a stream is no longer in existence. The beds are usually well preserved even if they get buried because the banks and canyons made by the stream are typically hard, although soft sand and debris often fill the bed. Dry, buried streambeds can actually be underground water pockets. During times of rain, sandy streambeds can soak up and retain water, even during dry seasons, keeping the water table close enough to the surface to be obtainable by local people. The nature of any streambed is always a function of the flow dynamics and the local geologic materials. The climate of an area will determine the amount of precip ...
