“…The core conservation area, buffer zone, and transition area cover an area of 22,800, 19,500, and 24,268 ha, respectively. The reserve lies in the transitional zone from the Yunnan-Guizhou Plateau to low mountains and hills in central China (Kang et al, 2016). The elevation of the highest and lowest site is 2,251 and 220 m above sea level (a.s.l.).…”

The East Asian monsoon and related seasonal rain belts are assumed to be significantly variable at intraseasonal, interannual, and interdecadal time scales, and largely determine the hydrology and ecological processes of the streams and rivers in this region. This study investigated the spatiotemporal variation in fish assemblages and the relative importance of local habitat and regional landscape variables in two protected streams in the middle Yangtze River basin. We hypothesized that the stream fish assemblages in this area are strongly influenced by the monsoon climate, and display a spatiotemporal variation in response to changes of stream flow regimes and physical habitats. The results show that species richness and abundance varied with both season and stream size. The distance to the downstream confluence site was the top important environmental factor, followed by altitude and downstream link. The results suggest that the fish assemblages within this protected watershed are mainly affected by regional landscape variables such as longitudinal position and stream position, but less by local habitat variables including water temperature and habitat types. The study highlights the importance of tributary connectivity and continuity to stream fish diversity in this area, indicating that restoration activities should preferentially recover the connectivity between upstream and downstream.Handling editor: M.

The genus Pareuchiloglanis, distributed in the Salween, Mekong, Red, Pearl and Yangtze River basins in China, Laos, Myanmar and Vietnam, consists of 20 valid species and 5 uncertain species. This study provided a taxonomic revision to Pareuchiloglanis occurring in the Yangtze River. According to the results of a morphological comparison, the type locality of Pareuchiloglanis sinensis was updated to the Nanpan‐jiang (the upper Pearl River) basin; five species were identified in Pareuchiloglanis from the Yangtze River basin. Specimens formerly identified as Pareuchiloglanis sinensis from this basin were described as a new species, Pareuchiloglanis chui sp. nov. Moreover, Pareuchiloglanis tianquanensis was synonymized with Pareuchiloglanis sichuanensis. This study provided a key to these two species and three others (Pareuchiloglanis anteanalis, Pareuchiloglanis hupingshanensis and Pareuchiloglanis robusta) from the Yangtze River basin, including information about their geographical distribution. These findings provide an insight into the evolution, distribution and taxonomy of this genus for future studies.

We describe three new species of Pareuchiloglanis. Based on a comparison of 17 valid species of Pareuchiloglanis, the genus can be divided into two groups contingent on their gill opening size and the anus position. One group, which we call the large gill opening group, has a large gill opening extending to the base of the first pectoral‐fin element; the anus is obviously closer to pelvic‐fin insertion than the anal‐fin origin; this group includes five species distributed in the Red and Pearl Rivers, China. The other group has a small gill opening extending only to the middle base of the pectoral‐fin elements; the anus is usually located at the midpoint of the pelvic‐fin insertion to the anal‐fin origin or slightly behind. This group includes the other 12 species, which are distributed in the Mekong and Yangtze Rivers. The large‐gill‐opening group can be divided into two sub‐groups based on the length of the caudal peduncle. One sub‐group has a long caudal‐peduncle and the distance from the anal‐fin origin to caudal‐fin base is greater than distance from the pelvic‐fin insertion. This sub‐group is only distributed in the Pearl River drainage. Another sub‐group has a short caudal peduncle and the distance from the anal‐fin origin to the caudal‐fin base is typically smaller than the distance from the pelvic‐fin insertion. This sub‐group is only distributed in the Red River basin of China and Vietnam. The former will be called the large‐gill‐opening group with long caudal peduncle in the text and only includes one species P. longicauda. During our ongoing taxonomic work of specimens collected from Nanpan‐jiang and Beipan‐jiang (upper Pearl River drainage in Yunnan, China), some Pareuchiloglanis specimens that had the characters of the large‐gill‐opening group with long caudal peduncle represent three undescribed species.
