Hemibagrus nemurus (Valenciennes, 1840)

Hemibagrus nemurus is a species of catfishes in the family Bagridae. After a major review by Ng and Kottelat (2013), its distribution is believed to be confined (endemic) to Java. It is found in Sumatra in the Bukit Tigapuluh National Park in 2016, too. These catfish are found in Malaysia, Indonesia (Java, Sumatra, Borneo) and Thailand.

In human culture

They are common food fish in Malaysia and Indonesia, where they are either steamed or cooked in curry.
