kryptopterus geminus is a species of catfish belonging to the family siluridae .

it can be distinguished from all its congeners , with the exception of kryptopterus cryptopterus , by the almost flat dorsal profile with no concavity behind the head .

this species grows to a length of 17.1 centimetres ( 6.7 in ) sl .

examples of this distinctively shaped , translucent fish used to be assigned to the long-established species k. cryptopterus but recent studies have shown several small but consistent differences which prompted the erection of this new species .

it has been recorded in cambodia , laos , thailand and vietnam .

k. geminus can be distinguished from this close relative by its narrower head , longer snout , longer anal fin and eyes located much more laterally .

kryptopterus geminus

the following term was not found in nucleotide : kryptopterus geminus [ orgn ] .
from the latin geminus , meaning twin - born ; in allusion to the close morphological similarity with kryptopterus cryptopterus .
geminus : from the latin geminus , meaning ‘twin - born’ , in allusion to this species’ close morphological similarity to k . cryptopterus .

k . geminus is gregarious and tends to form schools so ideally four or more specimens should be purchased .
can be distinguished from congeners in the dorsal profile lacking a nuchal concavity ( vs . nuchal concavity present ) and having short maxillary barbels ( extending to the base of the pectoral fin vs . extending beyond tip of pectoral fin ) . kryptopterus geminus
kryptopterus geminus , a new species of silurid catfish is described from the bang pakong , mekong , mae khlong and chao phraya river drainages in mainland southeast asia . kryptopterus geminus , together with k . cryptopterus , can be distinguished from congeners by the dorsal profile lacking a nuchal concavity and short maxillary barbels extending to the base of the pectoral fin . kryptopterus geminus can be further distinguished from k . cryptopterus in having a narrower head ( 9 . 5– 12 . 0 % sl vs . 12 . 2–14 . 2 ) , longer anal fin ( 62 . 2–72 . 7 % sl vs . 57 . 2–62 . 9 ) and snout ( 39 . 5–45 . 3 % hl vs . 35 . 1–39 . 8 ) , and more laterally - placed eyes ( only ventral half , vs . ventral two - thirds , of the orbital margin visible when the head is viewed ventrally ) .
can be distinguished from all other silurids in possessing the following two synapomorphies : a supralabial fold that is anteriorly truncated such that the lower edge extends far posterior to the base of the maxillary barbel and an elongate antorbital process of the lateral ethmoid that is not anteroposteriorly compressed ( bornbusch , 1995 ) . kryptopterus geminus
kryptopterus : from the greek kryptos , meaning ‘hidden’ , and pterýgio , meaning ‘fin’ , in reference to the reduced or absent dorsal - fin in members of this genus .
kryptopterus species are found only in southeast asia and the genus has been considered polyphyletic since bornbusch ( 1995 ) with some former species already moved to the genera phalacronotus and micronema .
asia : mekong , mae khlong , bang pakong and chao phraya river drainages in mainland southeast asia . previously misidentified as kryptopterus cryptopterus from malay peninsula , java , sumatra and borneo .
etymology . from the latin geminus , meaning twin - born ; in allusion to the close morphological similarity of this species to k . cryptopterus . used as a noun .
the identity of the material identified as k . cryptopterus by smith ( 1945 ) from the tapi river drainage could not be ascertained . it is very likely that it may represent k . geminus

k . cryptopterus and k . geminus can be further told apart from all other silurid catfishes by possession of an anteriorly truncated supralabial fold with the lower edge extending beyond the base of the maxillary barbel and an elongate antorbital process of the lateral ethmoid that is not anteroposteriorly compressed .
and k . cryptopterus also do not show any marked sexual dimorphism in the pectoral - fin spine as reported for most other silurid genera ( e . g . inger & chin , 1962 ; bornbusch & lundberg , 1989 ; ng & ng , 1998 ) . the two species are further distinguished from congeners in lacking a nuchal concavity ( present in all other kryptopterus

the post - pleistocene isolation of the north sunda river was probably the significant vicariant event leading to speciation of sister taxa in mainland and sundaic southeast asia in freshwater fishes ( bornbusch & lundberg , 1989 ) . these sister species ( consisting of distinct sundaic and mainland southeast asian species ) had long been assumed to be a single species widely distributed in large rivers throughout southeast asia , a phenomenon only recently acknowledged to exist in many freshwater fish groups . this is the most likely scenario for the speciation of k . cryptopterus and k . geminus
k . geminus can be distinguished from k . cryptopterus by possessing a narrower head ( 9 . 5–12 . 0 % sl vs . 12 . 2 - 14 . 2 ) , longer anal - fin ( 62 . 2–72 . 7 % sl vs . 57 . 2 - 62 . 9 ) and snout ( 39 . 5–45 . 3 % hl vs . 35 . 1 - 39 . 8 ) , and more laterally - placed eyes ( ventral half of the orbital margin visible when the head is viewed ventrally vs . ventral two - thirds ) .

thank you for taking the time to provide feedback on the iucn red list of threatened species website , we are grateful for your input .
this species was described from the mekong river in stung treng province , cambodia ( ng 2003 ) . prior to its recognition as a distinct species , it has been misidentified as k . cryptopterus .
justification : even though there is no information regarding the population size and trends for this species , survey data indicates that it is still abundant throughout much of its range . it is therefore assessed as least concern .
the species is known from the mekong ( from the mouth upriver to vientiane , lao pdr ) , mae khlong ( the mouth to at least kanchanaburi ) , bang pakong ( from the mouth to at least prachinburi ) and chao phraya ( the mouth upriver to at least ayutthaya ) river drainages in mainland southeast asia ( ng 2003 ) .
there is no information available on the population size and trends for this species , but survey data indicates that it is still abundant throughout much of its range .
dominany presence at khone falls during dry season , exhibits peak in beginning of rainy season . ( baran
this species is utilized as a food fish in artisanal fisheries . it is also sporadically collected and exported as an ornamental fish .
the threats to this species are unknown , since there is no information on the biology of this species and therefore the impact of potential threats ( especially those of an anthropogenic nature ) remains unknown .

this species has probably appeared in the trade under the name of its close relative k . cryptopterus .
known from the lower and middle mekong river system in thailand , laos , cambodia and vietnam at least as far upstream as vientiane , capital of laos , and the lower chao phraya drainage in thailand .
type locality is ‘ stung treng , mekong river 2 kilometers downstream from mouth of tonle sap on sandbars , mekong river drainage , cambodia , 13°31’n , 105°56’e’ .
inhabits flowing rivers and larger streams typified by turbid water with a lot of suspended sediment .
décor is relatively unimportant although this species prefers weakly - lit conditions and may become skittish in the absence of cover .
do not add introduce it to a biologically immature aquarium as it can be susceptible to swings in water chemistry .
probably a predator feeding on crustaceans , invertebrates and smaller fishes in nature , although there should be no need to use such live foods in captivity .
offer a varied diet comprising sinking dried foods , live and frozen bloodworm , tubifex , etc . , and perhaps the occasional small earthworm .
generally peaceful though it may predate on smaller fishes and is somewhat timid so does not compete well with much larger , robust or otherwise boisterous species .
peaceful , comparably - sized cyprinids , loaches and other catfishes perhaps constitute the best options but be sure to research your choices thoroughly prior to purchase .
unrecorded in aquaria . in nature it spawns at the onset of the wet season with young specimens common in seasonally - inundated areas .
this species is likely to be traded for aquaria but probably misidentified as the very similar - looking k . cyrptopterus with which wild populations were formerly considered conspecific .
these two are closely - related and can be distinguished from congeners by the dorsal profile lacking a nuchal concavity ( vs . possessing a nuchal concavity ) and possessing short maxillary barbels ( extending to the pectoral - fin base vs . extending beyond tip of pectoral - fin ) .
bombusch ( 1995 ) identified the k . bicirrhis group as a distinct clade although he didn’t propose any synapomorphy to diagnose it .
ng and kottelat ( 2013 ) later noted that members normally have fewer anal - fin rays ( 46–67 vs . 64–85 ) than other congeners and placed k . piperatus and k . vitreolus within the group based on this character .

justification : the species is a very widespread species , however deforestation is a threat to the species and its impacts need to be monitored . it is not thought that this will cause a population decline that will qualify the species for a threatened category . therefore , the species is assessed as least concern .
the species has been recorded from gambia to democratic republic of congo . in central africa , it is known from democratic republic of congo ( bunia , bambesa , eala , bobey , busira ) , angola , cameroon , congo , equatorial guinea , gabon , sao tome and principe . in western africa , the species is known from gambia to nigeria .
no conservation measures known but information on taxonomy , population ecology , habitat status and population trends would be valuable .
