Holotype: ZFMK-ICH 102318 53.6mm SL. Paratypes: FSJF 3542 (2) 45.5mm and 48.5mm SL. Genbank accession numbers KX774390, KX774392.
Distribution
Type locality: Subterranean waters, Little Zab River, Sulaimani province, ephemeral spring in the Tabeen Gorge at the slope of the northernmost Piramagrun mountain, about 800 m east of the village Kanishok, Iraq (35°50'3.40"N, 45°6'22.14"E).
Also known from Tabin stream, Sulaimani Province, Kurdistan, Iraq (35.8336N, 45.104544E) (Abdullah 2021).
Habitat
The true habitat of this species is not known. The animals were discharged from a newly opened spring, previously unknown, during a major storm event on 31st March 2016. The size and nature of the groundwater body which holds the population are not known.
Systematics
Most closely related to Eidinemacheilus smithi from Iran (Malek-Hosseini et al. 2022).
Biological Notes
Abdullah (2021) collected 38 samples of E. proudlovei which were populated by the monogenean Trematode Gyrodactylus angorae Ergens and Ibragimov 1979. They were found on the skin, fins and gills.
Conservation Status
MuG [NE]
Many individuals, probably in the hundreds, were washed out of the habitat during the storm event that revealed the species. It is possible that this was a major part of the total population.
