AB  - Salmonids are an extensively hatchery-reared group of fishes that have been introduced worldwide mainly for their high commercial and recreational value. The Balkan Peninsula (south-eastern Europe) is characterised by an outstanding salmonid diversity that has become threatened by the introduction of non-native salmonids whose potential risk of invasiveness in the region remains unknown and especially so under predicted climate change conditions. In this study, 13 extant and four horizon non-native salmonid species were screened for their risk of invasiveness in the Danube and Adriatic basins of four Balkan countries. Overall, six (35%) of the screened species were ranked as carrying a high risk of invasiveness under current climate conditions, whereas under predicted conditions of global warming, this number decreased to three (17%). Under current climate conditions, the very high risk (‘top invasive’) species were rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss and brown trout Salmo trutta ( sensu stricto ), whereas under predicted climate change, this was true only of O. mykiss . A high risk was also attributed to horizon vendace Coregonus albula and lake charr Salvelinus namaycush , and to extant Atlantic salmon Salmo salar and brook trout Salvelinus fontinalis , whose risk of invasiveness, except for S. fontinalis , decreased to medium. For the other eleven medium-risk species, the risk score decreased under predicted climate change, but still remained medium. The outcomes of this study reveal that global warming will influence salmonids and that only species with wider temperature tolerance, such as O. mykiss will likely prevail. It is anticipated that the present results may contribute to the implementation of appropriate management plans to prevent the introduction and translocation of non-native salmonids across the Balkan Peninsula. Additionally, adequate measures should be developed for aquaculture facilities to prevent escapees of non-native salmonids with a high risk of invasiveness, especially into recipient areas of high conservation value.

AB  - Brown trout of non-native lineages have been stocked into Croatian streams and rivers primarily to meet angler demand. The diet of brown trout in the Black Sea Basin of Croatia is poorly understood, and there are no studies examining feeding competition between the Atlantic (AT) and Danube (DA) lineages of brown trout and their hybrids (HY). The aim of this study was to examine the natural diet of brown trout of both lineages and their hybrids and to compare feeding overlap. Canonical correspondence analysis was used to investigate the relationships between feeding habits of fish from different streams and of different genetic origin. The differences in variation of the consumed prey items were analysed by canonical variate analysis, and diet overlap was assessed by the Schoener index. The results indicate that stocked brown trout (AT) adapt rapidly to new habitat and food, as revealed by the consumption of a wide range of available food items and competition for food and space by taking on the feeding behaviour of wild native conspecifics. Diet overlap was also detected between brown trout of the DA and AT lineages. This study highlights the need to implement control measures to preserve and protect the native diversity of this species.

AB  - Brown trout is a salmonid fish with a natural range extending throughout western Eurasia and North Africa. Due to its commercial value, it has also been introduced worldwide. In continental Croatia, introduced trout of the Atlantic lineage hybridizes with native trout of the Danubian lineage, threatening the native genetic diversity. The geometric morphometrics approach was used in this study to analyse changes in shape between native trout, introduced trout and their hybrids, classified a priori by molecular phylogenetic analyses. A total of 19 landmarks and semi-landmarks were used to capture the shape of 92 trout individuals belonging to two lineages and their hybrids. Canonical variate analysis and discriminant function analysis were used to analyse and describe shape variation. A significant difference was found between the shape of the Atlantic lineage trout and both Danubian lineage trout and hybrids, with the most prominent differences in body depth, head length and eye size. No statistically significant shape differences were observed between Danubian lineage trout and the hybrids. The observed significant differences in shape could be the result of genetic diversity or trout phenotypic plasticity. Further studies are needed to clarify the origin of this variation in shape.

AB  - Background. The molecular diversity of brown trout, Salmo trutta Linnaeus, 1758, has been poorly studied in Croatia. The control region of mitochondrial DNA (CR mtDNA) is in addition to other molecular markers a reliable for identifying phylogenetic lineages (haplogroups) and haplotypes of brown trout. Based on analyses of the control region of mitochondrial DNA several major brown trout phylogenetic lineages were identified of which the Danubian (DA) haplotypes, though not all, are considered native to Croatian rivers belonging to the Danube basin. The introduction of allochthonous haplotypes into natural streams seriously threatens the genetic diversity of this species. Therefore, the aim of this study was to map brown trout populations inhabiting Croatian rivers of the Danube River basin and to investigate their molecular diversity and phylogeographic patterns of the established haplotypes. Materials and methods. Anal fin tissue was taken from 141 specimens of brown trout in 14 localities in the protected areas of Croatia, situated in the mountainous regions of Gorski Kotar, Žumberak, as well as Mountain Papuk in the western Slavonia. The total DNA was extracted and then the amplification of the mtDNA control region was carried out using primers Trutta-mt-F and HN20. Amplification of the 440 bp long region of the LDH-C1 gene locus was done using primers Ldhxon3F and Ldhxon4R. Amplified LDH-C* fragments were used for Restriction Fragment Length Polymorphism (RFLP) analysis using BselI restriction enzyme. Results. Analysis of the CR mtDNA revealed the presence of two phylogenetic lineages, the DA and the Atlantic (AT). Haplotypes Da1, Da2, and Da22 were recorded within the DA lineage and At1 was recorded within the AT haplogroup. Two new haplotypes were described for the first time in this study and are named Da1f and Da1g. Restriction analysis of the lactate dehydrogenase gene locus revealed a high degree of hybridization between brown trout of DA and AT haplogroups. Conclusion. The results of this study confirmed the complex molecular diversity of brown trout and the high degree of the introduction of non-native haplogroups into rivers of the Danube basin in Croatia. Conservation of native brown trout populations has become evident, as introduced allochthonous DA and AT haplogroups severely disrupt the indigenous brown trout stock.

AB  - Environmental changes due to non-native species introductions and translocations are a global concern. Whilst understanding the causes of bioinvasions is important, there is need for decision-support tools that facilitate effective communication of the potential risks of invasive non-native species to stakeholders. Decision-support tools have been developed mostly in English language only, which increases linguistic uncertainty associated with risk assessments undertaken by assessors not of English mother tongue and who need to communicate outcomes to local stakeholders. To reduce language-based uncertainty, the ‘ecology-of-language’ paradigm was applied when developing the Aquatic Species Invasiveness Screening Kit (AS-ISK), a decision-support tool that offers 32 languages in which to carry out screenings and communicate outcomes to stakeholders. Topics discussed include uncertainty related to language-specific issues encountered during the AS-ISK translation and the potential benefits of a multilingual decision-support tool for reducing linguistic uncertainty and enhancing communication between scientists, environmental managers, and policy and decision makers.

AB  - The diversity of native trout fish Salmo spp. comprises a variety of nominal taxa in Serbia, Montenegro, and Bosnia and Herzegovina. Recent mapping of the resident trout populations detected the presence of brown trout Salmo trutta (sensu stricto) of the Atlantic (AT) mtDNA lineage introduced into populations of both tentative Danubian trout Salmo labrax and of tentative Adriatic trout Salmo farioides belonging to the Danubian (DA) and Adriatic (AD) mtDNA lineages, respectively. Introduction of the tentative Macedonian trout Salmo macedonicus of the AD lineage was also detected in a native population of the tentative S. labrax. In almost all recipient nonmigratory trout populations, a cross-breeding between native and introduced trout was detected by heterozygosity in either only the LDH-C nuclear locus or the LDH-C and specific microsatellite loci. The only exception was a population where both resident and migratory, lake-dwelling individuals of the tentative Adriatic trout spawned in a downstream section of a stream in Montenegro, as no microsatellite alleles of Atlantic brown trout that had been introduced upstream were detected. The occurrence of cross-breeding between Adriatic and brown trout was evident in the isolated, upstream section. It appears that migrating, lake-dwelling Adriatic trout in combination with their resident, stream-dwelling conspecifics suppress the introgression of genes from those situated upstream. In this regard, consideration should be given to the occurrence of the migratory brown trout in the Danube River at the broader Iron Gate Gorge area. They migrate in late summer and early fall from the Iron Gate One reservoir to the lower sections of tributaries devoid of any trout fish. However, some of these streams house very special native trout of the DA lineage in their short-extending upper sections. These native trout populations are, so far, still out of contact with the reservoir-dwelling trout. However, given the resilience of trout and their migratory life history, the outcome of this introduction could be deleterious for those native fish that are very precious in the conservation sense.

AB  - Fish from the Sava River are consumed daily by the local people: therefore, concern has been raised about the health implications of eating contaminated fish. In the present study, potentially toxic elements (PTE), such as Zn, Cu, Cr, Ni, Cd, Pb, As, Hg, and methylmercury (MeHg), were determined in ichthyofauna that are commonly consumed. PTE were determined in the fish muscle tissue. Fish were sampled at 12 locations from the source of the Sava River to its confluence with the Danube River during two sampling campaigns, namely; in 2014 under high water conditions and in 2015 under normal water conditions. Due to the different water regimes, different fish species were collected for chemical analysis. We observed that the concentrations of elements analysed in the fish muscle tissue were generally very low, except for those of Hg. Moreover, more than 90% of Hg present in the fish was in its most toxic form, namely MeHg. Especially in fish from the 2015 sampling campaign, Hg and MeHg concentrations increased with fish size, trophic level, and in the downstream direction. In addition, for Pb and As, and to some extent for Cd and Cr, spatial differences were detected in both years. The highest concentrations of PTE were detected in fish from sites with intensive industrial and agricultural activities. The consumption of fish in general does not pose a health risk for the PTE studied, except for Hg/MeHg at selected contaminated sites.

AB  - The freshwater Fish Invasiveness Screening Kit (FISK) has been applied in 35 risk assessment areas in 45 countries across the six inhabited continents (11 applications using FISK v1; 25 using FISK v2). The present study aimed: to assess the breadth of FISK applications and the confidence (certainty) levels associated with the decision-support tool’s 49 questions and its ability to distinguish between taxa of low-to-medium and high risk of becoming invasive, and thus provide climate-specific, generalised, calibrated thresholds for risk level categorisation; and to identify the most potentially invasive freshwater fish species on a global level. The 1973 risk assessments were carried out by 70 + experts on 372 taxa (47 of the 51 species listed as invasive in the Global Invasive Species Database www.iucngisd.org/gisd/), which in decreasing order of importance belonged to the taxonomic Orders Cypriniformes, Perciformes, Siluriformes, Characiformes, Salmoniformes, Cyprinodontiformes, with the remaining ≈ 8% of taxa distributed across an additional 13 orders. The most widely-screened species (in decreasing importance) were: grass carp Ctenopharyngodon idella, common carp Cyprinus carpio, rainbow trout Oncorhynchus mykiss, silver carp Hypophthalmichthys molitrix and topmouth gudgeon Pseudorasbora parva. Nine ‘globally’ high risk species were identified: common carp, black bullhead Ameiurus melas, round goby Neogobius melanostomus, Chinese (Amur) sleeper Perccottus glenii, brown bullhead Ameiurus nebulosus, eastern mosquitofish Gambusia holbrooki, largemouth (black) bass Micropterus salmoides, pumpkinseed Lepomis gibbosus and pikeperch Sander lucioperca. The relevance of this global review to policy, legislation, and risk assessment and management procedures is discussed.

AB  - Introduction 
The aim of this study was to determinate the activitiy of antioxidant enzyme catalse (CAT) and phase II metabolic enzyme glutathione-S-transferase (GST) in the liver of trout species from two sites at the upper stretch of the Sava River (Sava Bohinjka, downstream Bohinjska Bistrica and Radovljica) and three sites in the Adige River Basin (Vermigliana stream at Vermiglio, Noce at Mezzana and Noce at Mezzolombardo). Two basins are a part of the GLOBAQUA investigation approach (Navarro-Ortega et al., 2015) – Figure 1. Rising activity of CAT and GST is indicative for presence of stress factors - lack of oxygen and influence of an array of xenobiotics (Pavlović et al., 2004). 
Material and Methods 
The following trout taxa were used as sentinels organisms: Salmo trutta Linnaeus, 1758 (the Sava Basin), S. marmoratus and S. cenerinus Nardo, 1847 (the Adige Basin). Having in mind that collected taxa are closely related and have same ecological preferences, the data on activity of antioxidant and phase II metabolic enzymes is comparable. Due to the geographic distribution of trout species, it was not possible to collect the same taxa in two distinct river basins. Material for the analyses was collected and processed according to the standard procedure (Pavlović et al., 2004). 
Results 
Analyses of the activity of CAT and GST from the individuals from the Sava River did not show significant mutual difference, which is also the case with the activities of selected enzymes in individuals collected from the streams in the Adige River Basin. From the other side, statistical analysis showed that samples from the locality Sava Bohinjka had significantly higher hepatic GST activity in compare with all samples from the Adige Basin (p˂0.001, Anova, Tukey's post hoc test). Hepatic CAT also showed higher activity in individuals collected from the Sava than in those collected from the Adige River, but difference was not significant (p˂0.05).  
Discussion 
The results indicate that individuals of the trout species from the Sava River are under the higher influence of stress factors in compare to those collected from the Adige Basin. Having in mind that oxygen deficit was not recorded at investigated sites, the difference in enzymatic activity presented herein could indicate that the upper stretch of the Sava River is under higher influence of xenobiotics, in compare to streams investigated in the Adige Basin. Variation in activity of selected enzymes have been demonstrated in many studies and proposed as an effective marker of pollutant-mediated oxidative stress (Pavlović et al., 2004). The presence of pollutants and general degradation of certain sections of the Sava River have been discussed in previous studies (Milačić et al., 2015, Vrzel et al., 2016).

AB  - Cilj projekta GLOBAQUA (Sedmi okvirni program EC) je identifikacija dominantnih stresora, analiza njihove međusobne interakcije, kao i analiza uticaja stresora (pojedinačnih i višestrukih) na živi svet.1 GLOBAQUA okuplja multidisciplinarni tim iz 22 evropske institucije, kao i Maroka i Kanade. Projektom se predviđa istraživanje na šest rečnih slivova - Ebro (Španija), Adige (Italija), Sava (Slovenija, Hrvatska, Bosna i Hercegovina i Srbija), Evrotas (Grčka), Anglian (Ujedinjeno Kraljevstvo) i Souss Massa (Maroko). Jedan od zadataka GLOBAQUA projekta je i identifikacija parametara i stresnih faktora koji najznačajnije utiču na zajednice vodenih makrobeskičmenjaka, što je i cilj ovoga rada, a na primeru reke Save. Istraživanje je vršeno na potezu od Mojstrane (Slovenija) do ušća Save u Dunav, kod Beograda, na ukupno 19 lokacija. Zajednica vodenih makrobeskičmenjaka razmatrana je kao indikator za prioritizaciju analiziranih stresora. U razmatranje su uzeti parametri hidromorfološke degradacije, tip podloge, prioritetni zagađivači, kao i zagađivači koji su identifikovani kao specifični za velike reke sliva Dunava. Prema rezultatima korespodentne i "Forward" analize, nivo hidromorfološke degradacije, tip podloge, kao i 2,4-Dinitrophenol, Chloroxuron, Bromacil, Dimefuron, Amoxicillin, Bentazon i Fluoranthene (specifični zagađivači sliva Dunava2) su parametri koji su najznačajnije korelisani sa zajednicom vodenih makrobeskičmenjaka.

AB  - The major objective of this study was to investigate the impact of wastewaters on the level of genotoxicity and the possible reflection of genotoxicity on the genetic variability in chub (Squalius cephalus) collected from the sites under different pollution pressures along the Sava River. To emphasize the impact of wastewaters, this study was carried out in a season with low water discharge. The level of genotoxic potential at the sites was studied by alkaline and Fpg-modified comet assay in fish blood, while RAPD technique was employed on the fish muscle tissue. The variations in the genotoxic potential were observed along the Sava River based on the level of DNA damage in blood of the specimens collected at the selected sites. Clustering of the impacted sites was also observed based on RAPD fingerprints. Comparison of the data obtained in RAPD and the data from the comet assay indicated the possible reflection of genotoxicity on the genetic variability in chub collected from the sites with different pollution pressure. This is a preliminary study which reports the differentiation of the population of chub along the Sava River based on RAPD analysis.

AB  - At the beginning of the 20th century, the middle section of the Sava River in Croatia was unaffected by major human activities and rich in ichthyofauna. The Sava River was important for commercial and recreational fishing for the local population, which still remains today. However, the 1920s mining industry was established in Slovenia, which emitted carbon dust into the Sava River. At the same time, the construction of embankments to mitigate flooding started in the middle section. Furthermore, in the 1980s, the Krško nuclear power plant (NPP), and in the 2010s, the Krško hydropower plant (HPP) were built in Slovenia. These activities could have an impact on the composition of fish communities downstream from the major sources of disturbances. Therefore, the main aim of this paper were to analyze the changes in fish assemblages of the Sava River from 1978 to 2017, prior to and after the construction of Krško NPP and HPP at the Medsave site on the Sava River, 20 km downstream from the major construction operations. Collected data were divided into four sampling periods (SP): SP1, from 1978 to 1980; SP2, from 1991 to 1994; SP3, from 2001 to 2006, and SP4 from 2011 to 2017. Besides alien fish species, water quality and hydromorphological modifications were identified as significant stressors. In SP1 and SP2 limnophilic and eurytopic fish groups were predominant, and 26 different fish species were identified, but in SP3 and SP4 rheophilic fish groups become dominant, and the diversity has declined to 21 species. Threatened species blageon, Telestes souffia seems to be missing from the main course of the Sava River in last 20 years. It can be concluded that disturbances in the fish assemblage pattern have coincided with the presence of multiple stressors of human origin.

AB  - Sampling was undertaken, with the same fishing gear and along the Sava River, from its source to its confluence, in September 2014 and September 2015. In total, 44 fish species were identified, of which 37 were native species and 7 were alien. Fish samples revealed independence in terms of both species composition and their abundance under different hydrological conditions. During flooding and high water levels in 2014, pelagic fish species were sampled in greater proportion than at lower water levels in 2015 when benthic fish species were more abundant. The flood wave in 2014 was accompanied by catch of common carp, Cyprinus carpio, a typical lower rhithron fish species in the upper course, and of tench, Tinca tinca, a typical potamon fish species of backwaters, in the main channel of the lower Sava River. One specimen of bighead goby, Ponticola kessleri, which is common in the potamon fish community, was caught during the 2015 sampling close to the boundary between the upper and middle sections of the Sava. This is the first record of Ponto-Caspian gobies in the inland waters of Slovenia. Its finding far upstream indicates a strong effect of an as yet unidentified stress along the Sava River up to the spot where the bighead goby was sampled. Finally, these results indicate that pelagic fish species are more resistant to the stressful effect of flooding than benthic species, and that the structure of fish communities is influenced/affected by flooding as a short-term stressor. The progressively increasing number of alien fish species downstream in the Sava River point to the effects of long-term human-induced stressors in the area.

AB  - Fish introductions, particularly in areas of high biological diversity and endemism, represent a major threat for biodiversity. In the Balkan Peninsula, 60 fish species have been introduced to date, of which 36 have become naturalized in inland waters. Since the Balkans are one of the world's 35 biodiversity hot spots, this large presence of alien fish species poses a serious threat for the stability of freshwater ecosystems and the survival of the native ichthyofauna and of aquatic biodiversity in general. The motivation for the introductions, and the historical timeline, varies among the Balkan states. Despite recent attempts to implement and align legislation aimed at preventing the introduction of potentially invasive species, and the implementation of rigorous controls of introductions and increased protection of open waters, the majority of current introductions remain intentional, primarily via aquaculture. This review article provides a historical overview of freshwater fish introductions, the motivation behind them a nd the current distribution of alien freshwater fishes in the Balkans. The ecological implications and future perspectives concerning alien fish species in the region are also discussed.

AB  - Biochemical indicators and biomarkers were analyzed in the liver and gills of chub caught in three localities along the Sava River exposed to different environmental impacts. Sampling sites were: downstream from Zagreb (Zgd), downstream Sremska Mitrovica (SM) and downstream from Belgrade (Bgd). We observed that the relative amounts and levels of activity of Cu, Zn containing superoxide dismutase and glutathione in both the liver and gills, and the relative amounts of heat shock protein (HSP90) and metallothioneins in the gills were highest in the Zgd locality, suggesting a higher impact of metal pollution. The Zgd locality had higher concentrations of trace metals in the water, especially iron. In the SM and Bgd localities, higher relative levels of glutathione peroxidase and catalase were recorded (especially in SM) as compared to the Zgd locality, pointing to the presence of hydrogen peroxide and different classes of organic peroxides. Low water oxygen and high temperature levels in the Bgd locality suggesting different metabolic activity between examined locations. Our results suggest that different presence and concentrations of individual environmental factors (total environment) influence the way how fish establish homeostasis.

AB  - In this study we have performed a comprehensive genotoxicological survey along the 900 rkm of the Sava River. In total, 12 sites were chosen in compliance with the goals of GLOBAQUA project dealing with the effects of multiple stressors on biodiversity and functioning of aquatic ecosystems. The genotoxic potential was assessed using a complex battery of bioassays performed in prokaryotes and aquatic eukaryotes (freshwater fish). Battery comprised evaluation of mutagenicity by SOS/umuC test in Salmonella typhimuriumTA1535/ pSK1002. The level of DNA damage as a biomarker of exposure (comet assay) and biomarker of effect (micronucleus assay) and the level of oxidative stress as well (Fpg-modified comet assay) was studied in blood cells of bleak and spirlin (Alburnus alburnus/ Alburnoides bipunctatus respectively). Result indicated differential sensitivity of applied bioassays in detection of genotoxic pressure. The standard and Fpg-modified comet assay showed higher potential in differentiation of the sites based on genotoxic potential in comparison with micronucleus assay and SOS/umuC test. Our data represent snapshot of the current status of the river which indicates the presence of genotoxic potential along the river which can be traced to the deterioration of quality of the Sava River by communal and industrialwastewaters. The major highlight of the study is that we have provided complex set of data obtained from a single source (homogeneity of analyses for all samples).

AB  - On the survey of the recent records, the fish and lamprey fauna of the River Sava catchment consists of 74 species, 15 of which being considered alien. The indigenous species diversity, explained using the relation N = 0. 546 A 0.232, fits well into the range common for large catchments in Europe. Both taxonomic and ecological diversity, as well as the character of fish communities in streams and rivers, are strongly correlated with the stream order. On the relative abundance of species in fish communities, the upper rhithron fish communities cluster distinctly from those belonging to the middle rhithron, within which several subgroups of fish communities were distinguishable. Fish communities of the middle rhithron character in streams and small rivers stand distinctly apart from those belonging to particular sections of large rivers (e.g., the Rivers Sava, Drina, Vrbas, and Bosna), with the transitional type of middle rhithron fish community in larger rivers (e.g., those in the Rivers Una and Sana) that resemble more to the fish communities common in middle rhithron streams. Fish communities in the middle section of the River Sava in Croatia and in the bordering area with Bosnia and Herzegovina mainly belong to the lower rhithron, attaining the character of potamon in the most downstream, Serbian section. River Sava’s fish communities strongly interact with the ones occurring in the most downstream sections of their largest tributaries, e.g., the Rivers Una, Vrbas, Bosna, Drina, and Kolubara, which makes them very similar in structure in the areas of river mouths. Classification of fish communities based solely on the presence and absence of species revealed similar general pattern of fish community classification, though with the more sharp delimitation between those belonging to the upper and middle rhithron on one and to the lower rhithron and potamon on the other side. That was supported by the determination of fish communities belonging to the upper rhithron with brown trout Salmo cf. trutta, European bullhead Cottus gobio, and minnow Phoxinus phoxinus as the most common fish species. Fish communities belonging to the middle rhithron were determined mainly with chub Squalius cephalus and spirlin Alburnoides bipunctatus, whereas brook barbel Barbus balcanicus and stone loach Barbatula barbatula occurred in both upper rhithron and middle rhithron. Nase Chondrostoma nasus were associated with both middle and lower rhithron fish communities. The most common fish species that determine the lower rhithron fish communities were common bream Abramis brama, ide Idus idus, and bleak Alburnus alburnus, with the northern pike Esox lucius, Balon’s ruffe Gymnocephalus baloni, and racer goby Neogobius gymnotrachelus as significant species explaining fish communities of both lower rhithron and potamon. The level of production of fish in the River Sava varies remarkably within the sections with the similar ecological features, as well as between the sections that differ for the type of fish community. The greatest biomass and annual natural production were recorded in the sections homing the potamon and lower rhithron fish communities, especially in the flooding areas of side arms and oxbows which serve as spawning areas and nurseries. A total of 15 alien fish species was recorded in the River Sava catchment, the Prussian carp Carassius gibelio and brown bullhead Ameiurus nebulosus being assessed the most invasive in the areas with the potamon fish community. A strong impact from both long-term and recent stocking with alien hatchery-reared brown trout strains and rainbow trout in the upper rhithron fish communities was recently recognized. Mudminnow Umbra krameri and huchen (or Danube salmon) Hucho hucho are considered the two most threatened fish species of the River Sava catchment, where various types of riverbed modifications, especially the damming, were seen the most prominent threatening factors for fish diversity.
