This new species is described from the Lam River drainage in central Vietnam. This species was collected in a steeply sloping rainforest stream 1-3 meters wide. It was obtained only in waterfalls where it was found adhering to vertical rock surfaces alongside two Schistura spp. (hill stream loaches).
