Threats [top]
Major Threat(s):
A dam was built on the Mun River about 30 years ago, with at least twelve further major dams constructed within the Mun River drainage since (International Rivers 2012), and consequently the species may have been impacted by impoundment, changes in flow regimes, and sedimentation. Additional threats include pollution (sedimentation and agricultural) from forest clearance and agricultural activities within the drainage.
