Tanichthys albonubes
Description
Tanichthys albonubes (Lin)
(Fig. 57.)
Distribution. Tai Po Kau Nature Reserve (current survey).
Native range. China and Vietnam (East Asia).
Remarks. This species once had native populations but was extirpated during the 1960s (Chong & Dudgeon, 1992). The individuals observed in the stream at Tai Po Kau Nature Reserve in 2018 do not resemble those of the wild types that have been found in Hainan Island and Guangdong (Chan & Chen, 2009; Zhao et al., 2018), and instead, are identical to those from the aquarium trade. No individuals were observed during surveys in Tai Po Kau Nature Reserve before or after 2018.
