Gyrinocheilus aymonieri (Tirant)

( Fig. 48A, B , SEA[SPC])

References. None. This is a new record for Singapore.

Distribution. Bedok Reservoir (Anonymous, pers. comm., 2015).

Remarks. This is probably a discarded pet, as the specimen obtained was a xanthic variant with a bright yellow orange body but with normal pigmented eyes. A normal coloured individual is illustrated in Fig. 48 for reference.
