Bârlădel
River in Romania
The Bârlădel is a left tributary of the river Siret in Romania. It flows into the Siret near Șerbeștii Vechi. The basin size of the 17 km (11 mi) long Bârladel is 339 km2 (131 sq mi). Before the regularization of the lower course of the Siret, it was a branch of the Siret, collecting several left tributaries of the Siret, including the Geru and the Suhu. Since the regularization works, the Geru discharges directly into the Siret, and the remaining course of the Bârladel collects the left Siret tributaries to the east of the Geru and the Suhu. The Bârlădel flows through the villages Independența, Vasile Alecsandri, Braniștea and Traian.

Why this record matters
“Bârlădel” is worth following because a concise public description often conceals a longer documentary argument. Here, Bârlădel, River and Romania provides the most credible route into that argument.
Place names and jurisdictional language are key evidence: both can reveal earlier catalogue descriptions and overlooked record series. The source revision retrieved here is dated Sep 12, 2026. The linked authority identifier is Q85749733. Authority coordinates are 45.415, 27.873. None of the 1 selected statements returned an explicit reference.
Modern boundaries and familiar names can conceal earlier jurisdictions or structures that do not align with the present site. The lead is largely declarative, so disagreement and counter-evidence require a deliberate search beyond the opening account. Authority statements aid reconciliation but still require their own references, qualifiers and ranks to be checked.
