Hemibagrus capitulum (Popta) View in CoL

( Fig. 53 View Fig , SEA[SPC])

References. Alfred, 1966a (as Mystus nemurus View in CoL ); Ng HH & Tan HH, 2010 (as Hemibagrus nemurus View in CoL ).

Distribution. Jurong Lake ( Ng HH & Tan HH, 2010).

Remarks. Ng & Kottelat (2013b) recently revised the taxonomy of the Asian Hemibagrus , and resolved many issues with existing species. The common lowland species found throughout most of the lower Sundaic drainages has been re-identified as H. capitulum ; whereas H. nemurus , which was the name erroneously used for the species in Singapore previously, is restricted to the island of Java.
