The naked mid-dorsal area seems to be a unique diagnostic trait of this species within its comparison group including the species of the Euphrates and Tigris drainages. A naked breast and anterior belly is also present in some populations of G. rufa. Garra mondica can be further differentiated from G. rufa by having usually 7½ branched rays in dorsal fin (vs. usually 8½). In addition to the naked breast, anterior belly and predorsal back, G. mondica can be separated from G. persica by having usually 9+8 rays in caudal fin (vs. usually 8+8). It differs from G. rossica by having a fully-developed mental disc (vs. reduced) and 18-23 total gill rakers on the first branchial arch (vs. 11-15); from G. variabilis by having a fully developed mental disc (vs. reduced) and two pairs of barbels (vs. one); and from G. lorestanensis, G. typhlops and G. widdowsoni by having well-developed eyes and a brown or grey, usually mottled color pattern (vs. absence of color pattern) (Ref. 109570).
