Singapore country information

Common names: Grey-banded loach
Occurrence: native
Salinity: freshwater
Abundance: scarce (very unlikely) | Ref: Lim, K.K.P., H.H. Tan and J.K.Y. Low, 2008
Importance: | Ref:
Aquaculture: | Ref:
Regulations: | Ref:
Uses: live export: yes;
Comments: Occurs in a small part of the Central Catchment Nature Reserve. Frequents fast flowing forest streams with acidic water and sand-gravel substrate. Relatively common in the 1960s but is now rare. Threatened mainly due to degradation of its habitat. Conservation measures include continued protection of its natural habitat and protection from illegal fish collectors (Ref. 85309). Status of threat: critically endangered (Ref. 85350).

Short description Κλείδες προσδιορισμού | Μορφολογία | Μορφομετρία

Μαλακές ραχιαίες ακτίνες (συνολικά) : 13; Μαλακές εδρικές ακτίνες: 8; Σπόνδυλοι: 34 - 35. Presence of acuminate scales above and below lateral line on caudal peduncle. This characteristic is shared with N. spiniferus. Other diagnostic characters include: 8-12 very regular dark bars (vs. not very regularly shaped bars in N. spiniferus), 3-5 times wider than interspaces, the middle area of the bars being often lighter brown than the margin or as light as the background, the bar then being vertically split into two thin bars; dorsal length of head 18-22% SL (vs. 21-23%); process of acuminate scales shorter than (versus as long as) rest of scale, its base width about 1/4-1/3 of scale width (versus about 1/2).
