Chitala
aff.
lopis
(Bleeker 1851)
Chitala
aff.
lopis
: Authors’ data, 2018 (Lenggong, Sg.
Perak
).
Remarks.
Kottelat & Widjanarti (2005)
suggest that
Chitala lopis
is most likely restricted to Java and specimens that occurs in Peninsular
Malaysia
may be
Chitala borneensis
or
Chitala
sp. (undescribed). From our field observations, specimens from Lenggong displayed silvery body and a black spot at pectoral-fin base.
