Distribution. Georgia: Chorokhi, Kintrishi, Mchishta and lakes Kakhaberi and Inkiti in Black Sea basin.
Habitat. A variety of slow-flowing or still waters. Usually associated with dense vegetation or coarse rocks.

Remarks. The presence of mtDNA from P. semilunaris in fish from Kintrishi indicates some degree of hybridisation between the two species.
