Description
The length of Jindydarya is 57 km, the catchment area is 367 km². The river’s food is mixed: snow, rain and spring [4] , according to some sources also ground [2] . High water lasts from March to June, which accounts for 56% of the annual runoff, especially high water discharge in April, an average of 3.30 m³ / s [4] . Minimum runoff falls in August and September [2] . The long - term average water discharge measured at the Javuz village is 1.35 m³ / s [4] . During spring torrential rains, medium and strong mudflow phenomena are also observed in the channel of the river and its tributaries, when water flow was recorded up to 46.2 m³ / s (March 26, 1970) [2] [4] . The width of the river before the confluence is 2.0 m; depth - 30 cm, rocky bottom [6] .
Jindydarya originates at the junction of the Zeravshan and Gissar ranges , at an altitude of about 2500 m, collecting water of about 100 sources flowing from the western slope of Mount Sherdag . It flows in a general westerly direction [4] , in the upper reaches - with a noticeable bias to the north, on average - with a slight bias to the south. In the lower reaches, the channel forms meanders in some places [6] .
A number of small settlements (from source to mouth) are located in Jindydarya : Musabazar , Javuz , Sumak , Ashkan , Kishlakcha , Tashkishlak , Tuil , Katlas , Abikhanda , Ishkob , Mugul , Vatkana , Aftabray , Yangikishlak , Dungkishlak , Deyishkan . There are garden plantations and vineyards along the shores [6] .
Near the settlement Beshkaltak flows to the left into the Kashkadarya river [4] [6] .
Ichthyofauna
Ferghana marinka ( Shizothorax intermedius ) is abundant in Jindydarya and the streams flowing into it on the territory of the Kitab Nature Reserve, crested char ( Noemacheilus melapterurus ) and striped rasper ( Alburnoides taeniatus ) are found in smaller numbers [2] .
