Scientists at the GB Pant Institute of Himalayan Environment and Development discovered two new species of fish in rivers of Arunachal Pradesh. The two new species of catfish are Erethistoides Senkhiensis and Glyptothorax Dikrongensis. The new species of fish were found at Senkhi stream and Dikrong River in Papum Pare district.
The new species which were named after their Arunachalee sources are ample proof of the rich flora and fauna of Arunachal Pradesh. Besides publishing about the discovery of Balitora brucei, Glyptothorax telchitta and Pseudolaguvia shawi, 88 species of freshwater fishes have been assessed and evaluated by the institute for the Red Data Book for International Union for Conservation of Nature (IUCN).
