This study describes the molecular identification of sixteen fish speciespresent in processed products imported into Iran for human consumption.DNA barcoding using direct sequencing of about 650 bp of themitochondrial Cytochrome Oxidase subunit I gene revealed incorrectlabeling (31.25%). Substitution of fish species constitutes serious economicfraud, and our results increase concern regarding the trading of processedfish products in Iran from both health and conservation points of view.Pages
