Uses: no uses
Comments: Known from Mekong basin (Ref. 30857). Found in Ban Hang Khone at Don Khone, 3 km below the fall line of the great waterfalls of the Mekong basin at Lee Pee (Ref. 9497). One of the most important migratory pangasiid species at Ban Hang Khone. Reproduction presumably takes place in or along the Mekong delta. Migratory fish generally have empty stomach. Enters the flooded forest and feeds on mak deua (Ref. 9497). Upstream the Khone Falls, it migrates upstream from May to September, dominated by fish in spawning condition (Ref. 37770). Above the Khone Falls, dowstream migration takes place in October (Ref. 37770). These migrations are triggered by the increase of the water levels above the Khone Falls (Ref. 37770). Also Ref. 37767, 43281.

ຊີວະສາດ     ຄຳແປສັບ (ຕ.ຢ. epibenthic)

Facultative air-breathing (Ref. 126274); Migrating but the direction is unknown. Dietary habits have not been studied. Taxonomy of this species may be problematic (Ref. 12693). Unique among pangasiid species in the Mekong in spending a major part of its life in marine coastal waters. Migrates into the Mekong River (but not into any other rivers) in order to breed (Ref. 12369). Regarded to be anadromous (Ref. 12369). It was hypothesized that at least two populations in the Mekong undertake migration (Ref. 37770). One population migrates during May-September from just south of Khone Falls upstream to spawning grounds along the mainstream Mekong all the way to Chiang Khong near the Lao-Thai-Myanmar border. The other population migrates downstream from around Stung Treng to unknown spawning grounds somewhere between Stung Treng and Kompong Cham in Cambodia during the spawning season between May and August. When water level starts to fall in October, the fish moves back to the main river to initiate an upstream dispersal migration, reaching the stretch just below the Khone Falls. Stays in deep pools within the mainstream during the dry season (Ref. 37770). Only two specimens of the fish were collected on April 5, 1956 and September 10, 1957 in Beihai City, Guangxi (Ref. 45563). Another on November 22, 1963 at Shanwei City of Guangdong Province (Ref. 45563).
