Hemiculter leucisculus is fast expanding its range into the southern Caspian Sea basin in Iran (Zareian, Esmaeili, Zamanian Nejad, & Vatandoust, 2015) and was recently recorded from Azerbaijan by Mustafayev, Ibrahimov, and Levin (2015). Its invasion of the Black Sea basin is only a question of time.
