Leucos
Leucos is a genus of fishes in the family Cyprinidae, from Southern Europe. They are carp close to the genus Rutilus, and were only recently taxonomically distinguished from that genus.[1]

Molecular data suggest that Leucos diverged from Rutilus more than five million years ago, probably during the Messinian salinity crisis. The species of Leucos are typically of small size and they all live in still waters. They differ from Rutilus by the lack of spinous tubercles on scales and head in reproductive males, and also in the pharyngeal teeth formula.[1] The sister group to Leucos is the monotypic Sarmarutilus.[1]
Species
There are currently five recognized species in the genus:[2]
- Leucos albus Marić, 2010
- Leucos aula Bonaparte, 1841
- Leucos basak Heckel, 1843 (Albanian roach)
- Leucos panosi Bogutskaya & Iliadou, 2006 (Acheloos roach)
- Leucos ylikiensis Economidis, 1991

gollark: It may be a bad idea, though. OpenOS actually does a *lot*.
gollark: Local variables aren't passed into the stuff inside `load`, but you can pass an environment as I think the 4th argument and add additional stuff to that, or use globals, or pass in the extra stuff as function parameters. You can access parameters inside `load`ed code with `...`.
