Title

Cyprinus Nasus/ Die Nase/ Le Nase/ The Nose- Carp

Representation of a Nase- Carp. The common nase (Chondrostoma nasus) is a European potamodromous cyprinid fish. It is often simply called the nase, but that can refer to any species of its genus Chondrostoma. Another name is sneep. The nase is found naturally in drainages of the Black Sea (Danube, Dniestr, Southern Bug, Dniepr), the southern Baltic Sea (Nieman, Odra, Vistula) and the southern North Sea (to Meuse in the west). Moreover it has been introduced to the Rhône, Loire, Hérault, and Soca (Italy, Slovenia) drainages. It is a migratory fish.
