we report the results of the monitoring and investigation of the ichthyofauna of the Beshar River, one of the tributaries of the Tigris−Euphrates basin in Kohkiluyeh and Boyer-Ahmad Province, southwest Iran. The results showed that during a period from 2010 to 2011, a total of 13 fish species belonging to four families and three orders were recorded in the Beshar River. The results showed that among families of ichthyofauna, the large family was Cyprinidae with nine species and 69.2 percent abundance and the dominated species was the Garra rufa with 30.3 percent abundance. The Beshar River ichthyofauna is a combination of fauna and includes 6.5, 14.3 and 17.7 % of species, family and order of Iran freshwater fish fauna respectively.
