Alburnoides gmelini, the Dagestan spirlin, is a fish species of the family Cyprinidae, known from the western Caspian coast of southern Russia. I can be differentiated from its cogenerates by differences in fin ray and vertebral counts, together with other morphological characters.[2] The specific bane honors Samuel Gottlieb Gmelin, a Russian-German naturalist who traveled through the River Don area and the Caucasus region and along the western and southern Caspian Sea coasts between 1768 and 1774.[3]
