Alosa macedonica, or the Macedonian shad (also known as liparia), is a landlocked species of clupeid fish endemic to Greece.[1] Its single natural occurrence is the freshwater Lake Volvi in northern Greece. It is threatened by habitat loss.[1]

Biology

Alosa macedonica is a member of the genus Alosa, whose other species are often anadromous migrating between marine and freshwater.[2] Research suggests that the ancestors of Alosa macedonica inhabited marine regions of the Aegean Sea.[2]

Alosa macedonica have teeth in the palatine and vomer.[2] They have approximately 50 vertebrae and 106-128 gill rakers.[2] They are about 181-230mm in length and spawn around the months of July and August.[2]

Apart from Lake Volvi, the species was previously present in Lake Koronia but in 1995 the lake dried up killing all the fish.[1]
