Abstract

Lately, the research concerning the delimitation, monitoring and preserving those ichthyotaxons submitted to extinction of the Romanian fauna in general and of the North-East part of Romania in particular has suffered a pronounced regress. There were few studies that focused on the refuge areas of the rare and endemic species of fish of sweet water, having as habitat the mountain and heeloch regions, their reproductive evolution, migrations, the impact of the invasive species, etc., the general emphasis being on thorough fundamental research regarding the species of major economic importance, the same species that represent the object of aquaculture.

Few of these published studies can be labeled as non-disparate, systematized and of deontological probity, as many of them comprise data from the inhabitants near the banks, from sportive fishermen or different forest employees.

1. The superior area of the Moldavian Bistrita includes a series of singular biotope in Romania and Europe, assertion that is supported by the fact that this is perhaps the last zone where the huch (HUCHO HUCHO L), grayling (THYMALLUS THYMALLUS L) and eel (EUDONTOMYZON DANFORDI) etc. can still be found;

2. In the superior area a of Bistrita there is a species of miller’s thumb unique in Romania (another species of this fish was discovered only in sweden), bearing the name of variegated miller’s thumb (COTTUS POECILOPUS HECKEL 1836);

3. In the above mentioned area there will probably be an expansion of the vast hydro-technical devices, which implies important geographical changes in the course of the river Bistrita, from the end of the lake Bicaz up to Vatra Dornei Region, with the mention that in the Region Galu, an adduction is almost complete;

Chaotic forest exploitations have altered the equilibrium achieved in tens or hundreds of years, by removing sawdust from the riverbed of the emissaries, by wild rafting, by spilling used fuel and lubricants, sonic pollution etc.
