The European mudminnow (Umbra krameri) is a species of fish in the Umbridae family found in Austria, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Bulgaria, Croatia, Hungary, Moldova, Romania, Serbia, Slovakia, Slovenia, and Ukraine within the Danube and Dniester river drainage basins. Widespread loss of wetland habitat, agricultural impacts, channelization, climate change and invasive species are contributing to declines, and the International Union for Conservation of Nature classifies this formerly abundant species as vulnerable to extinction within its indigenous range. An introduced population exists in northern Germany.
