Ecology of Schizothorax heterophysallidos
 
Main Ref. Yang, J., X. Chen and J. Yang, 2009
Remarks In Yingshang (a tributary of the Nanpan Jiang), Fuyuan County, Yunnan Province, the species occurs in small, 0.5−1.5 m deep, 5−15 m wide, streams. The river substrate is comprised of sand and pebbles. At the time of capture water was black-grey, most likely due to the presence of a coal mine upstream. In May, many young S. heterophysallidos 40−50mm SL were seen to inhabit shallow water.
