Distribution. Unknown.

Native range. Amur River basin to South China ( East Asia).

Remarks. Listed as an uncommon pond fish by Man & Hodgkiss (1981) with no notes on exact localities. It was likely an escapee from an aquaculture facility, and is presumably no longer present since there have been no subsequent records ( Chong & Dudgeon, 1992).
