Abstract
This paper presents a first report of GlyptothoraxigniculusNg & Kullander (2013) from India. A checklist of the fish fauna of Chakpi River is presented, based on the present collection and those reported by the earlier workers. A total of 90species of fishes belonging to 53 genera and 21 families are recorded from the river. Based on the IUCN status, the fish fauna of the river includes five endangered, six vulnerable, nine near threatened, forty five least concern and four data deficient. Highest species composition was observed in Cyprinidae family followed by Sisoridae. The fish fauna of the river is a mixture of endemic hill stream, Burmese and some widely distributed forms.
