Re: Some photos from my time in Bhutan
Sorry, I tried to repost some photos. Perhaps when I have more down time I will upload more. I changed computers, so the photos are not at my fingertips so to speak.

Re: New Olyra
Just looking at the images, it looks like the anal fin on praestigiosa extends a lot further anteriorly than the one we have in Bhutan. I will look at the specimens this week. I only have 2-3 specimens in my possession unfortunately.

Re: Sungai Setulang, Kalimantan Utara
Panaque, Thanks for posting those pics!!!! That Garra looks to be the real G. borneensis. The Caudal fin has strong black band on upper and lower rays, four transverse scale rows above lateral line, and it looks like the tip of the first branched dorsal ray would not pass the last branched ray when ...

Re: New Olyra
HH,
The book was released primarily for Bhutanese agencies and policy makers and hydroelectric projects etc. However, I got a box of them shipped back to me from Bhutan. I will be selling a few copies (about 10-15) to recoup my costs if you are interested. Email me if so.

Re: New Olyra
Nice! A copy if possible. Also, Do you suppose this is the same species I encountered in Bhutan? In our book, unfortunately, I think we have it tentatively as longicaudata. We may have added a note that it may be a new species, I don't remember.

Re: Photo tank recommendations? (upcoming trip to Borneo)
They are fairly easy to make. Just think up the dimensions you want, and have someone at a hardware store or glass store cut it,or to save money, just cut it yourself using a cheap glass cutter. All you need is a glass cutter, clear silicone sealant, and glass. This page has dimensions for making ...

Re: Some photos from my time in Bhutan
Bekateen, We found quite a few frogs, however, we were doing a nation-wide inventory of fishes, and we were constantly on the run, so I did not spend a lot of time photographing the frogs we encountered. We found some quite high, around 3,000m. Other herps encountered include a few scary run-ins ...

Re: Some photos from my time in Bhutan
Haha nice! I figured I could relate to a few of you with that.
Someone I know once had a bag of Danio's disappear from a hotel room in remote Nepal haha. The most likely hypothesis being that they were crisps by morning

Re: Some photos from my time in Bhutan
Silurus, Unfortunately, I believe that specimen is back in our Bhutan collection. Next time I go back, I will investigate it. As for the Olyra, I have not had the time to investigate this group yet, but I had tentatively called it longicaudata, however, the adipose fin appears to be much more ...

Some photos from my time in Bhutan
Hey all, below are some pictures from my time living in and traveling about Bhutan sampling fishes. These were mostly from the monsoon and post monsoon season of 2013. Sorry for posting them so late! A lot of the species we encountered are new, and under-going descriptions, or are in prep or in ...

Re: Glyptosternoid biogeography
Interesting! Look forward to reading it.
Although, I have found glyptosternines (depending on what you consider glyptosternines) below 950m. Some as low 350-400 I think. But I agree with the point being made. Will publish soon enough ;)

Re: New Parachiloglanis
Dear all,
Apologies! I hate closed access papers. They do not serve our science well IMO. I am out of town at the moment but will arrange for the paper to be open access when I return, even if it means paying out of my own pocket.
Cheers and Tashi Delek,
Ryan
