Poblana
''Poblana'' is a genus of Neotropical silversides that are endemic to Mexico, with each of the four threatened species restricted to a single Oriental Basin maar lake. They are small fish that do not surpass in standard length. Species FishBase recognizes four species in this genus, although genetic differences between them are very limited and some regard all as subspecies of ''P. alchichica''. ''Poblana'' is sometimes included in ''Chirostoma'' instead of being regarded a separate genus. * '' Poblana alchichica'' F. de Buen, 1945 (Alchichica silverside) * '' Poblana ferdebueni'' Solórzano & Y.

Poblana Alchichica
The Alchichica silverside (''Poblana alchichica'') is a species of neotropical silverside endemic to Lake Alchichica in Mexico. ''Poblana achichica'' measures up to 10 in. (25 cm). According to a 2001 book, information on its breeding habits are not widely known and its primary food source is small aquatic invertebrates. The threats to ''Poblana achichica'' are largemouth bass and the habitat destruction Habitat destruction (also termed habitat loss or habitat reduction) occurs when a natural habitat is no longer able to support its native species. The organisms once living there have either moved elsewhere, or are dead, leading to a decrease ... from people.

''Poblana ferdebueni'', the Chignahuapan silverside is a species of neotropical silverside endemic to Mexico.

Poblana Squamata
''Poblana squamata'', the Quechulac silverside, is a species of neotropical silverside endemic to Mexico. It is only found in the volcanic crater lake of Quechulac which is southeast of Alchichica, Puebla State, Mexico at an elevation of . It was first described by Jose Álvarez del Villar in 1950 from types collected from the lake. The lake is approximately half a kilometre square and deep. The fish only inhabit some areas of the lake, avoiding the steep slopes and preferring areas where sedges grow. Due to this extremely small habitat area, the species is listed as Critically Endangered on the IUCN Red List. While the lake is not affected by human alteration, there is danger of overfishing. It prefers pelagic (open water) areas. Its diet is omnivorous and consists of crustaceans. algae, insects, and sometimes its own larvae.

Oriental Basin
The Oriental Basin, also known as the Libres-Oriental Basin, Oriental-Serdán Basin or San Juan Plains (in Spanish, ''Llanos de San Juan'' or ''Cuenca de Libres-Oriental)'', is an endorheic basin in east-central Mexico. It covers an area of 4,958.60 square kilometers, lying in the states of Puebla, Tlaxcala, and Veracruz. The climate is temperate and subtropical, semi-arid to subhumid, with summer rains. Average annual temperature 12-16 °C, and annual total precipitation is 400–800 mm. The Trans-Mexican Volcanic Belt pine-oak forests ecoregion covers the mountains surrounding the basin to the west, north, and east. The mountains to the north and west, including the Cofre de Perote volcano, leave the valley in a rain shadow, and the xeric shrublands of the Tehuacán Valley matorral ecoregion occupies the center of the basin, and extend south into the Tehuacán and Cuicatlán valleys. Vegetation includes pine-oak forests and pine-fir forests at higher elevations, with ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Chirostoma
''Chirostoma'' is a genus of Neotropical silversides from the Lerma River basin in Mexico, including lakes Chapala and Pátzcuaro. Fish in the genus collectively go by the common name charal/charales in their native range (a name also used for the related '' Poblana''). They are heavily fished, but several of the species have become threatened due to habitat loss (pollution, water extraction and drought), introduced species and overfishing. Three species are considered extinct: '' C. bartoni'' (disappeared 2006), '' C. charari'' (1957) and '' C. compressum'' (1900). Four others have not been recorded recently and may also be extinct. Appearance and behavior ''Chirostoma'' are generally silvery-white, pale gray-brown or dull yellowish in color, and have a long horizontal line on the side of the body (inconspicuous and more spotty in some species). They vary in size, ranging from species that are less than long to species that can surpass . Despite the differences, there is ...
