Authors: Veryl Hasan, Josie South, Fitri S. Valen, Sapto Andriyono, Lucas O. Vieira, Abu B. Sambah, Felipe P. Ottoni

Abstract: Saddle Barb, Barbodes sellifer, is a freshwater fish endemic to Malay Peninsula and the Indonesian archipelago and is here recorded for the first time from Belitung Island, Indonesia. This is a range extension of about 300 km to the southeast from the closest previously known locality on Bangka Island, and, in addition to reporting its occurrence on another island of the Indonesian archipelago, this is the southernmost known locality for the species. We also provide an updated map showing the species’ distribution.

First record of the vulnerable freshwater fish Lobocheilos falcifer (Valenciennes, 1842) (Teleostei, Cyprinidae) in Sumatra, Indonesia https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/97576/ Check List 19(1): 51-55

DOI: 10.15560/19.1.51

Authors: Veryl Hasan, Felipe P. Ottoni, Josie South

Abstract: Lobocheilos falcifer (Valenciennes, 1842) is a freshwater fish endemic to the island of Java, Indonesia, and has been assessed as Vulnerable according to the International Union for the Conservation of Nature criteria. In May 2022, a male specimen of L. falcifer was collected in the Way Sekampung River, Lampung Province, Sumatra, Indonesia. This represents the first record of this species outside of Java. This new record expanded the species distribution about 300 km to the north, and to an additional island within the Indonesian archipelago. The occurrence of this species on the island of Sumatra likely changes its conservation status; thus, new conservation actions may be more appropriate for the species and its known populations. The presence of L. falcifer on separate islands indicates that biogeographic interpretations of Indonesian fishes may change and highlights the need for urgent study of freshwater biodiversity in the region.

A new record of Leptobotia pellegrini Fang, 1936 (Teleostei, Cypriniformes, Botiidae) from the Western Nghe An Biosphere Reserve, Vietnam https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/87632/ Check List 18(4): 919-923

DOI: 10.15560/18.4.919

Authors: Thao Hoang, An Vinh Ong, Quang Hoang, Ho Anh Tuan, Xuan Khoa Nguyen

Abstract: We report a new record of Leptobotia pellegrini Fang, 1936 from the Western Nghe An Biosphere Reserve, Vietnam, based on 25 specimens collected in the Kien stream (Ca River), Tuong Duong district, Nghe An province. Morphological features of these specimens were confirmed against the description of this species by Fang (1936). Our new data extend the species’ geographic range southward by approximately 650 km from the Gam River (Na Hang, Tuyen Quang province), Vietnam.

Expanding the geographical distribution of Rhynchocypris czekanowskii (Dybowski, 1869) (Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae) in the basin of the Yenisei River, Eastern Siberia, Russia https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/33193/ Check List 15(3): 369-374

DOI: 10.15560/15.3.369

Authors: Ivan Vladimirovich Zuev, Sergei Mikhailovich Chuprov, Anastasiya Vyacheslavovna Zueva

Abstract: The currently known geographical distribution of Chekanovskii’s Minnow, Rhynchocypris czekanowskii (Dybowski, 1869), is limited only by the lower reaches of the arctic river basins in which this species lives. We report R. czekanowskii from the small water bodies of middle part of Yenisei river basin, expanding its distribution to the south of the river basin to 55°51ʹ41ʺ N latitude, more than 100 km south from previously known occurrences of this species.

First record of the Conchos Shiner Cyprinella panarcys (Hubbs & Miller, 1978) from the mainstem of the Rio Grande along the USA–Mexico border https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/29309/ Check List 14(6): 1123-1129

DOI: 10.15560/14.6.1123

Authors: Amanda K. Pinion, Stephanie D. George, Joshuah S. Perkin, Kevin W. Conway

Abstract: Cyprinella panarcys is considered to be endemic to the upper Río Conchos drainage of Mexico. A single individual of C. panarcys was collected from the Rio Grande along the USA–Mexico international border (Presidio Co., Texas) in April 2018. This is the first record of C. panarcys from outside of the Río Conchos and the first record from the USA. A brief description of the external morphology of the individual collected is provided along with an updated distribution map for the species.

Crossocheilus obscurus Tan & Kottelat, 2009 (Teleostei, Cyprinidae): distribution extension and first record for Musi basin, South Sumatra, Indonesia https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/23079/ Check List 13(6): 1121-1124

DOI: 10.15560/13.6.1121

Authors: Muhammad Iqbal, Indra Yustian, Winda Indriati, Doni Setiawan, Arum Setiawan

Abstract: Crossocheilus obscurus is a little known cyprinid fish which was first described in 2009 in the Batang Hari basin (West Sumatra province, Indonesia), with no additional published information since that time. In April 2016, C. obscurus was observed and photographed in the Musi basin (South Sumatra province). The identification of this species confirms its presence in a new river basin, more than 250 km south from its type locality.

First record of Lobocheilos ixocheilos Kottelat & Tan, 2008 (Cypriniformes, Cyprinidae) in South Sumatra province, Indonesia https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/22761/ Check List 13(6): 931-933

DOI: 10.15560/13.6.931

Authors: Muhammad Iqbal, Arum Setiawan, Ina Aprilia, Muhammad Isa, Indra Yustian

Abstract: Lobocheilos ixocheilos is only known from 2 major riverine systems in Sumatra and Kalimantan, Indonesia. In Sumatra, it was previously known only from the Batang Hari basin and reported from localities in the provinces of West Sumatra and Jambi. This paper provides the first record of L. ixocheilos from the Musi basin in South Sumatra province, thereby extending the distribution of the species approximately 150 km southwest from the previous record.

Inventory of fishes in the upper Pelus River (Perak river basin, Perak, Malaysia) https://checklist.pensoft.net/article/20132/ Check List 13(4): 315-325

DOI: 10.15560/13.4.315

Authors: Mat Esa Mohd Ikhwanuddin, Mohammad Noor Azmai Amal, Azizul Aziz, Johari Sepet, Abdullah Talib, Muhammad Faiz Ismail, Nor Rasidah Hashim

Abstract: The upper Pelus River is located in the remote area of the Kuala Kangsar district, Perak, Malaysia. Recently, the forest along the upper portion of the Pelus River has come under threat due to extensive lumbering and land clearing for plantations. Sampling at 3 localities in the upper Pelus River at 457, 156 and 89 m above mean sea level yielded 521 specimens representing 4 orders, 11 families, 23 genera and 26 species. The most abundant species was Neolissochilus hexagonolepis, followed by Homalopteroides tweediei and Glyptothorax major. The fish community structure indices was observed to increase from the upper to lower portion of the river, which might reflect differences in water velocity.
