Abstract

Mystacoleucus marginatus, a native freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae, is known from parts of Southeast Asia and Western Indonesia Archipelago (Borneo, Sumatra, and Java). This study aims to identify the genetic diversity of M. marginatus in the Brantas basin upstream, Java, Indonesia based on the Cytochrome C Oxidase Subunit I (COI) gene. The results showed that M. marginatus in the Brantas basin upstream had 2 Haplotypes with Haplotype diversity (Hd) = 0.222 and nucleotides diversity (Pi) = 0.00041.
