Diagnosis. — Hemibagrus spilopterus is distinguished from all members of the H. nemurus species group in having the interorbital space gently-curved (vs. flat). This is more clearly seen when the head is viewed dorsally. It further differs from H. capitulum in having the adpressed dorsal fin (excluding the filamentous extensions of the fin rays if present) not reaching (vs. reaching to or beyond) the adiposefin origin, from H. filamentus in having a larger dorsal to adipose distance (10.8–17.6% SL vs. 7.7–10.9), and from H. fortis in having the anteriormost branch of the dorsal-fin rays longer than other branches (vs. branches of dorsal-fin rays of almost equal length) giving the dorsal fin a distinctly jagged (vs. rounded) distal margin ( Fig. 20 View Fig ) and a shorter, deeper adipose fin (maximum height of adipose fin 1.7–3.2 times in the length of its base vs. 2.8–4.9). It is further distinguished from H. hoevenii in having the premaxillary tooth band not (vs. partially) exposed when the mouth is closed, rounded (vs. tapering) caudal-fin lobes, absence (vs. presence) of a broad and conspicuous dark margin around the caudal fin, a rounded (vs. triangular) anal fin, broader membranes of the dorsal fin which give it a rounded (vs. triangular) appearance, and filamentous extensions on the dorsal fin, if present, not reaching beyond middle of adipose-fin base (vs. very long filamentous extensions of the first two dorsal-fin rays, when present, that reach beyond the posterior base of the adipose fin), and from H. nemurus in having a larger eye in specimens larger than approx. 150 mm SL (12–18% HL vs. 9–11).
Description. — Biometric and meristic data as in Table 16. General description as for genus. Head depressed and broad, body moderately compressed; head width 56–73% HL. Interorbital space gently curved. Eye diameter 12–18% HL. Premaxillary tooth band not exposed when mouth is closed. Dorsal profile rising evenly but not steeply from tip of snout to origin of dorsal fin, then sloping gently ventrally from there to end of caudal peduncle. Ventral profile horizontal to origin of anal fin, then sloping dorsally to end of caudal peduncle. Adipose-fin base short, approximately as long as anal-fin base; maximum height 4.7–7.4% SL (1.7–3.2 times in length of adipose-fin base). Adipose-fin origin separated from base of last dorsal-fin ray by distance of 10.8–17.6% SL. Dorsal spine stout, with 7–11 serrations along posterior edge. Anteriormost branch of each dorsal-fin ray longer than other branches, imparting jagged distal margin to fin; membranes broad, imparting rounded appearance.Adpressed dorsal fin (excluding filamentous extensions of rays) not reaching adipose-fin origin; filamentous extensions not reaching beyond middle of adipose-fin base. Pectoral spine stout, with 15–26 large serrations along posterior edge. Anal fin rounded, origin slightly posterior to adipose origin. Caudal fin forked; upper and lower lobes rounded. Maxillary barbels reaching barbels reaching at least vertical through base of last anal-fin ray (209–299% HL). Maximum recorded size 500 mm SL ( Serov et al., 2006).
Colour. — Dorsal surface of head and body uniform brownish-grey; ventral surface of head and body dirty white; adipose fin brownish-grey, posterior half with distinct black spot; fin-rays and inter-radial membranes of all fins grey; dorsal surface of barbels brownish-grey, ventral surface dirty white.
Distribution. — Hemibagrus spilopterus is known from the river drainages in Indochina: Mekong [upstream to Chieng Sen], Dong Nai, Ban Pakong, Chao Phraya and Mae Khlong ( Fig. 26 View Fig ).
Habitat and biology. — Hemibagrus spilopterus is found in a wide variety of lotic and lentic habitats. The species feeds predominantly on small fishes and crustaceans (Beeckman & de Bont, 1985; Rainboth, 1996). In the Cambodian Mekong, it moves into the flooded forests to spawn, with the young being first seen in August; the fish migrate back towards the rivers in November–December ( Rainboth, 1996).
Remarks. — Ng & Rainboth (1999) considered the material identified as H. nemurus from central Indochina to belong to a distinct species, although they did not formally name it. They pointed out that the name Macrones luridus Tirant in Pétillot, 1911, possibly referring to this species, is a nomen nudum and published only once in a list of fishes (republished in Chevey, 1929) sent by Tirant to the Musée Guimet d’Histoire Naturelle, Lyon. In the same study, they described H. spilopterus , distinguishing it from congeners by the presence (vs. absence) of a distinct black spot on the adipose fin. Our investigation shows that the material identified by Ng & Rainboth as H. cf. nemurus and H. spilopterus are conspecific and that this material is distinct from H. nemurus s. str. and other Sundaic species in the H. nemurus species group. The only difference between the H. cf. nemurus of Ng & Rainboth and H. spilopterus is the intensity of the black spot on the adipose fin, with no other significant differences in morphology of the material being found in our study. As noted by Ng & Rainboth, a black spot is also present on the adipose fin in some individuals of H. capitulum (particularly those from central Sumatra), although they considered the spot in H. spilopterus to be more rounded and intensely coloured.. Given the variability displayed among individuals of this character, we conclude that it is not a useful diagnostic character.
The species identified as Hemibagrus sp. 1 by Nguy n (2005) is likely to be H. spilopterus . This species, for which material from the Mekong River drainage in northern Vietnam (Song Nam Rom) was examined, was described as being most similar to H. wyckii . It was described as differing from H. wyckii in having very long maxillary barbel reaching to the anal fin, short nasal barbel not reaching the orbital margin, adipose fin originating at vertical through anal-fin origin, length of adipose-fin and anal-fin bases equal and about two-fifths of the distance between the dorsal- and adiposefin bases. Although this information is scanty and could presumably refer to H. spilopterus or H. wyckioides (two other congeners likely to occur in the area), the illustration of this species (Nguy n, 2005: Fig. 184) is more similar to H. spilopterus on the account of the relatively short adipose-fin base. However, H. spilopterus has not (yet) been encountered in the Nam Ou drainage (of which the Song Nam Rom is a part of; MK pers. obs.). Despite this, we re-identify the Hemibagrus sp. 1 of Nguy n (2005) as H. spilopterus based on the information available and the illustration of this species.
