Habitat and Ecology [top]
Habitat and Ecology: This species was collected from amongst roots in a stream flowing through an island in the Mekong River (Ng and Rainboth 2005). From the biology of congeners, it is likely that this species would be restricted to small streams draining into the Mekong River, or the shallower littoral portions of the Mekong River, rather than in the main channel of the river.
Systems: Freshwater
Movement patterns: Unknown
Use and Trade [top]
Use and Trade: This species is not used as a food fish, although it may be utilised this way as bycatch. It is also not collected for the ornamental fish trade.
Threats [top]
Major Threat(s): The threats to this species are unknown, since there is no information on the biology of this species and therefore the impact of potential threats (especially those of an anthropogenic nature) remains unknown. The current threats to aquatic biodiversity in all of its known distribution have also not been adequately identified.
Conservation Actions [top]
Conservation Actions: There is insufficient information on the distribution, biology and potential threats for this species.
