Distribution. High Island Reservoir, Hok Tau Reservoir, Shing Mun Reservoir, Lau Shui Heung Reservoir, Plover Cove Reservoir, Kowloon Reservoir, Shek Lei Pui Reservoir, Tai Lam Chung Reservoir, Tai Tam Tuk Reservoir (Lai, 2011; current survey); Shek Pik Reservoir (AFCD, 2021c; current survey); Tai Tam Byewash Reservoir (GBIF.org, 2021; current survey).

Native range. North and South Korea, China, and Japan ( East Asia).

Remarks. This species is suspected to have both native and non-native populations in Hong Kong (Chong & Dudgeon, 1992). Reservoir populations are likely to have been introduced by water transfers from mainland China and from local rivers.
