Zusammenfassung: | An individual of Longnose marbled whipray Fluvitrygon oxyrhyncha (Sauvage, 1878) (60 cm of total length) was caught and photographed on 3 August 2020, from Pahang River, Kuala Lipis District, Pahang, Malaysia. This rare finding represents the first-ever known record of F. oxyrhyncha in Malaysian waters, and only the fourth record in Southeast Asia besides former records of F. oxyrhyncha from Thailand, Cambodia, and Indonesia. Further study and monitoring is needed to asses the possibility of the importance of Pahang River as habitat of F. oxyrhyncha. |
