Statistically significant differences were found in the average values of the most meristic and plastic characteristics of the populations. It has been found that the population from the Chograi Reservoir is characterized by the highest degree of morphological isolation. Possible ways of penetrating of the species into the studied water bodies are discussed.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Marine Biological Journal}, author={Pashkov, A.
