Morphological differences in Neolissochilus soroides (Pisces: Cyprinidae) populations in national parks in eastern Thailand
Phlio waterfall (PL) in Namtok Phlio National Park in eastern Thailand is well known for the abundance of a stream fish, Neolissochilus soroides (Cyprinidae) for many decades. It had been observed that morphology of N. soroides population at PL appeared to be much thinner than those in nearby popu...

| description | Phlio waterfall (PL) in Namtok Phlio National Park in eastern Thailand is well known for the abundance of a stream
fish, Neolissochilus soroides (Cyprinidae) for many decades. It had been observed that morphology of N. soroides population at
PL appeared to be much thinner than those in nearby populations. To clarify this issue, we sampled individuals of N. soroides
from four populations associated with four headwater streams and examined their body profiles using 11 morphological
characteristics. Results revealed that some individuals of PL population were significantly thinner than others (p < 0.005). This
difference was not influenced by the environment nor genetics, and may be related to health of the fish, which will require further
investigation.
