Abstract:
One of the most important steps in conservation of the subterranean life forms is
to decipher their distribution and ecology, which is challenging using traditional approaches.
Development of an environmental DNA (eDNA) assay provides an efficient
means for discovering and monitoring subterranean life forms. In this study, the distribution
of three Iranian blind cave fish species (blind Iran cave barb Garra typhlops,
blind Lorestan cave barb Garra lorestanensis, and blind cave loach Eidinemacheilus
smithi) was assessed using 12S rRNA eDNA metabarcoding performed using MiFish-U
PCR primers and preliminary species distribution modeling (SDM) using bioclimatic
data. The majority of sampling localities with positive detection of cave barb eDNA
fall within suitable habitats in the Zagros Mountains of Iran. Our results revealed that
Lorestan and Iran cave barbs have differential distribution patterns, with some extent
of habitat overlap in the vicinity of the originally discovered cave barb locality.
According to the observed distribution patterns, the blind Lorestan cave barb and
cave loach are mostly distributed in habitats close to the Sezar River (Dez River drainage,
Iran), and the blind Iran cave barb is distributed towards the west and probably
in a few springs in the Karkheh River drainage. Our data support the previously proposed
distribution pattern for the cave barbs, in which the species show partial niche
separation and reproductive isolation, with the Lorestan cave barb being a water
flow-dependent
species and the Iran cave barb being a generalist species preferring
variable flow rates. We showed eDNA metabarcoding to be a useful approach for ecological
surveys of subterranean fish biodiversity with implications for conservation.
