The Sherobod, Sherabad or Sheroboddaryo (Uzbek: Sheroboddaryo, Russian: Шерабад) is a right tributary of the Amu Darya[1] in the Surxondaryo Region, southern Uzbekistan.
[2] The river rises in the arid foothills of the Gissar Range and flows south through steppe before flowing through a mountain ridge to empty into the Central Asian plain near the city Sherobod.
Because of irrigation water use, most of the water in the Sherabad no longer reaches the Amu Darya and its eventual destination in the Aral Sea.
The name is a Persian/Tajiki compound made of 'sher' or 'shir' for 'lion',[1] 'abad/obod' for English 'village, city' and 'darya/daryo' for a large river or sea.
