|Reviewer/s:||Collen, B., Darwall, W., Ram, M. & Smith, K. (SRLI
Freshwater Fish Evaluation Workshop)| There are ongoing threats
to P. sanitwongsei, including harvesting, and alteration of the
river for dams and increased shipping. Assessed as Critically
Endangered due to an estimated population decline of more than
99% over three generations, even using the most optimistic
values for generation time and population size (assuming a
constant exponential rate). This rate has been inferred for the
whole population given that the same threats exist throughout
the range of P. sanitwongsei. |Range Description:||The species
is known from the Chao Phraya and Mekong basins in Cambodia,
China, Lao PDR, Thailand and Viet Nam.| Native:Cambodia; China
