Vimba mirabilis, also known as the Menderes vimba or Menderes bream, is a freshwater fish species in the family Cyprinidae. It is endemic to Turkey, specifically around Büyük Menderes River. It is still abundant in reservoirs and therefore considered as of least concern for conservation measures.[1]
