[2] [4]The subspecies Cyprinus carpio haematopterus (Amur carp), native to eastern Asia, was recognized in the past, [4] but recent authorities treat it as a separate species under the name Cyprinus rubrofuscus.
Common carp infected with Cyprinid herpesvirus 1 have been shown to exhibit atypical swimming behaviours, protrusion of the eyes from their cavities, darkening of the skin, and hemorrhaging across the body and the operculum.
