This study confirms the extended distribution of two invasive species of the genus Ameiurus in Ukraine. Specifically, A. melas is recorded for the first time in the Southern Buh basin and A. nebulosus has expanded further eastward within the Dnipro basin. Material collected in 2019 and 2022 was identified by morphological features and confirmed by molecular genetic analysis. The most reliable morphological characters for distinguishing these two species include anal‐fin membrane pigmentation (light or black), gill raker count (fewer or more than 16), and serrations on the pectoral‐fin spine (well‐developed along the full length or small, absent near the tip). The analysis of the cytochrome oxidase subunit I barcoding marker identified all samples from the Dnipro Basin (Tnia and Velykyi Luh localities) as A. nebulosus, while all specimens from the Vinnytsia region within the Southern Buh basin (Sotskoho and Vyshenske lakes) were attributed to A. melas. The maximum‐likelihood analysis revealed clearly separated clades with high bootstrap support (>75%), strongly supporting the presence of the two separate species. This study suggests the potential for further eastward expansion of both species within Ukraine: A. nebulosus in the northern direction and A. melas in the southern direction.

The paper deals with the inventory of the fish species, their distribution and ichthyofauna in the Irpin River basin after the end of hostilities. During the period of investigations, 36 fish species were recorded. For the first time in the basin we recorded Ballerus ballerus, Aspius aspius and Neogobius melanostomus. In the fish fauna structure, the aboriginal species prevailed. Their contribution to the total numbers accounted for 56.5-98.7%. The complex of rare fishes comprised three species listed in the Red Data Book of Ukraine: Alburnoides rossicus, Leuciscus leuciscus and Carassius carassius, and also five species listed in the Resolution 6 of the Berne Convention: Cobitis taenia, Rhodeus amarus, Misgurnus fossilis, Sabanejewia aurata and Aspius aspius. The ichthyofauna structure analysis revealed separate groups in the middle, the least transformed part of the basin, and in the lower section of the Irpin River, in the area flooded owing to the dam explosion, where the specific ichthyocenosis was formed comprising new species from the reservoir and elevated portion of the limnophilous fishes. Ichthyofauna in sites located in the territory most affected by hostilities, but outside the flood zone, on the whole corresponded to the general patterns of species distribution and structure typical to natural ichthyocenoses.
