Finding of a Cichlid Species New for the Fauna of Vietnam, Redbelly Tilapia Coptodon zillii, in the Dong Nai River Basin
摘要
Abstract
Coptodon zillii (Gervais, 1848) has been recorded for the first time in Vietnam, in the Dong Nai River basin. The species has been found in three locations in southern Vietnam and shows signs of successful adaptation. Its introduction to the Dong Nai River basin poses a threat to local fish fauna, especially given the existing anthropogenic pressure.
