Glyptothorax is a
Euphrates River drainages) and southwards to Southeast Asia. The genus is very diverse in the Indian subcontinent.[3] Southeast Asian species tend to have restricted distributions.[4]
Description
This genus is easily distinguished from other sisorids by having an adhesive apparatus on the
papillate. The maxillary barbels have a well-developed membrane and a soft base. The gill openings are wide. The paired fins are plaited and modified to form an adhesive apparatus in some species of Glyptothorax.[2]
Ecology
Like other sisorids, these fish are
rheophilic, that is they inhabit fast-flowing streams, where they are adapted to live by using the adhesive apparatus on the underside to attach themselves to rocks and prevent being washed away.[4]
