Morphological Characteristics for Classification of Genus Cyprinus Linnaeus, 1758 in Phong Nha - Ke Bang National Park in the North Central Part of Vietnam

A morphological analysis of 56 Cyprinus fish specimens from Phong Nha-Ke Bang National Park, Vietnam, identified four distinct species: Cyprinus carpio, C. hieni, C. melanes, and C. quidatensis. This study contributes to the taxonomic understanding of the genus in the region by characterizing key morphological traits that differentiate these species. The research employed traditional morphometric techniques to classify specimens, providing valuable insights for biodiversity studies in this UNESCO-listed karst landscape.
