| Comments |
Occurs in the middle Mekong River and lower most course of main tributaries (Ref. 43281). Found in Ban Hang Khone at Don Khone, 3 km below the fall line of the great waterfalls of the Mekong basin at Lee Pee (Ref. 9497). Apparently restricted to the mainstream of the Mekong River, where it may well be the rarest of the larger fish species (Ref. 9497). According to fishermen from Ban Hang Khone, the appearance of large pa sanak in December is a signal that the November-December migration of pa uhn (Probarbus) has ended (Ref. 9497). Also Ref. 10431, 30857, 37770. |
