References. Ng HH & Tan HH, 2010; Ng, 2012; Ng HH & Tan HH, 2013.

Distribution. Lower Peirce Reservoir ( Ng HH & Tan HH, 2010); Upper Seletar Reservoir ( Ng HH & Tan HH, 2010).

Remarks. Ng (2012) has clarified the status of Mystus wolffii in Singapore. The estuarine and dammed river-reservoir records probably represent native populations (i.e., Murai and Lower Seletar Reservoirs in Ng HH & Tan HH [2010]; Punggol and Serangoon Reservoirs in Ng PX & Tan HH [2013]), but the records from the inland reservoirs are probably non-native stock from raw water transferred from Johor, Peninsular Malaysia.
