Open encyclopedia reference
Leptobarbus hosii, the Sayan Barb, also locally called as Piam and Temopong, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Leptobarbus from freshwater habitats in northern Borneo in southeast Asia. However, a previously unknown population has been recorded in West Kalimantan.
Named in honor of Charles Hose (1863–1929), British colonial administrator in Borneo, zoologist and ethnologist, who collected the type specimen.
