Barbodes palavanensis

Barbodes palavanensis is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish from the carp and minnow family, Cyprinidae which is found in the Philippines.[1] It has been considered to be conspecific with the widespread spotted barb (Barbodes bipunctatus) which is found throughout mainland south-east Asia and the Malay Archipelago.[2] It was recorded as being abundant in two streams on the island of Palawan, alongside the newly described endemic goby, Stiphodon palavanensis and the cyprinid Rasbora everetti.[3]
