Olyra collettii (Steindachner, 1881) |
| Family: | Bagridae (Bagrid catfishes) | |||
| Max. size: | 5.82 cm SL (male/unsexed) | |||
| Environment: | demersal; freshwater | |||
| Distribution: | Asia. | |||
| Diagnosis: | Distinguished by having the following characters: posterior nares with nasal barbels (shared with various Old-World catfish taxa); anus and urogenital openings widely separated (shared with a large subgroup of Bagridae); first lateral line ossicle with well-defined processes articulating with supracleithrum (shared with species of Olyra) (Ref. 55745). | |||
| Biology: | Formerly wrongly attributed to the South-American fauna. This species clearly belongs to South Asia. It is possible that accidental mixing of specimens and or labels resulted in the assignment of this species to a Neotropical location (Ref. 55745). | |||
| IUCN Red List Status: | Not Evaluated (N.E.) Ref. (130435) | |||
| Threat to humans: | harmless | |||
