Geographic Range [top]
Range Description:
Anotogaster gregoryi is known from Nepal (Vick 1989), China with records from Yunnan (e.g. Fraser 1924) and Guangdong (Wilson 2010) and possibly Sichuan (Asahina 1988), Chiang Mai in Thailand (e.g. Hämäläinen and Pinratana 1999), possibly Tibet (Asahina 1988), Viet Nam and Laos (Yokoi 2003). Based on the known records it is to be expected in Bhutan, Arunchal Pradesh in India and possibly other north-eastern states in India (see below), and Myanmar. Asahina (1988), in a very unclear piece of text, recorded specimens labelled as from "Thibet", but he appears to consider that these actually come from Sichuan. Asahina (1986) also remarks on a specimen of this species in the Natural History Museum, London, labelled only as "Khasia Nat. Coll."; possibly this specimen originated in northeast India. Only the records from Guangdong and Laos are recent.

Current Population Trend: Unknown
Additional data:
? Number of mature individuals: 300-500
? Population severely fragmented: No
Habitat and Ecology [top]
Habitat and Ecology:
This appears to be a montane species, presumably breeding in forest streams, although little has been recorded about its habitat.
Systems: Terrestrial; Freshwater
Threats [top]
Major Threat(s):
Some populations of this species are likely to be threatened by deforestation or large-scale hydroelectric projects, but with its wide distribution it is unlikely to be globally threatened.
Conservation Actions [top]
Conservation Actions:
Specific conservation measures for this species are unlikely to be needed, but there is a need for more data on distribution and biology.
