Abstract

This study provides the first report of Clupisoma garua (Hamilton, 1822) from Bhutan. The species was recorded from Ayechu in Gelephu under Sarpang District at an elevation of 200m. Ayechu is perennial running and slow-flowing river with sandy and muddy bottom where C. garua is inhabited. The current report revealed the extended distribution of C. garua towards Bhutan and will helps in understanding the distribution range and conservation status of the species.
