Native range.
Pearl River Delta endemic, South
China
.
Distribution.
Kowloon Reception Reservoir (Lai, 2011); Tai Lam Chung Reservoir (Lai, 2011; current study); Plover Cove Reservoir (GBIF.org, 2021).
Remarks
. Native populations inhabit estuaries and lower courses of streams in the New Territories and Lantau Island. However, there are several non-native reservoir populations that are suspected to have been introduced through water transfers from mainland
China
(Lai, 2011).
