Geographic distribution and sampling. White circles represent records of O. platycephalus from Chen et al. (2024), though the taxonomic validity of these records requires further verification. Orange triangles represent the putative new species provided by Prof. Li-Na Du. Base maps were obtained from the Tianditu Service website (https://cloudcenter.tianditu.gov.cn/administrativeDivision/, Map Approval Number: GS (2024) 0650). The red box in the upper-left corner indicates the distribution area of the genus Oreonectes within China. Abbreviation: UPR, Upper Pearl River; LPR, Lower Pearl River; LYR, Lower Yangtze River.
