حفاظت A synopsis on the freshwater fishes exists and a recent checklist is in preparation (Ref. 12217). Apart from the Mekong river the country is virtually unknown from an ichthyological point of view. Probably 100-200 additional species with restricted distributions should be expected in the unexplored rapids and hill streams (Ref. 12217). The following information is to be sought: - Existence of conservation plans; - Information on major aquatic habitats or sites within the country; - Current major threats to species; - Future potential threats to species; - Contact(s) for further information. As of 1998, unpublished data counts 357 species (Ref. 27732).
