Rhinogobius cheni ( Nichols, 1931)

Remarks. According to Coad (2014), the identities of these exotics in Afghanistan require confirmation. e.g., recent work has shown some Central Asian fish to be Rhinogobius cheni ( Nichols 1931) , according to Vasil’eva (2007) and Vasil’eva and Kuga (2008). The presence of the species needs clarification.
