The variability of the morphological characters of the genus Alburnoides Jeitteles, 1861 from watercourses in the south of Russia (five rivers of the Crimean Peninsula and two rivers of Krasnodar krai) is considered. It has been established that, in spirlins within the study areas, body sizes average from 60.1 ± 1.45 mm in individuals from the Gostagaika River (Krasnodar krai) up to 88.2 ± 1.87 mm in fish from the Angara River (Crimean Peninsula). Using the Mann–Whitney test, statistically signi
