Description |
Asia: tributaries of the Salween basin in Thailand and Myanmar (Ref. 39226). Reported from India (Ref. 4832).
Geographic Range [top]
Range Description: This species has been recorded in the Mae Nam Moei drainage (a Salween tributary) in Thailand and Lao PDR. "Records" from Arunachal Pradesh (India) (Talwar and Jhingran 1991) are the result un-understandable taxonomic decisions. Records from further upriver in Salween drainage (Z. Lunn pers comm. 2011) require confirmation. This species is more expected in the lowland and in drainages further south of the Mae Nam Moei (Ataran, Tenasserim, etc,) than in the uplands of the Salween drainage.

Use and Trade:
This species is utilized as part of local subsistence fisheries (M. Kottelat per. comm. 2011).
Threats [top]
Major Threat(s):
Anthropogenic modification of river morphology impacts this species by reducing or interrupting fast water flow. Logging, deforestation and agriculture occurs in the area, with associated impacts on the aquatic environment. If its range includes the Salween proper, dams (e.g., the Kunlon dam; Z. Lunn pers. comm 2011) may impact the species and its habitat.
