Sažetak

Mystus vittatus (Bloch, 1794), an indigenous small fish of Bangladesh, belongs to the family Bagridae, widely distributed in Asian countries including Bangladesh, India, Pakistan, Sri Lanka, Nepal and Myanmar. However, natural populations are seriously declining due to high fishing pressure, loss of habitats, aquatic pollution, natural disasters, reclamation of wetlands and excessive floodplain siltation and it is categorized as vulnerable species. This paper suggests the measures for the conservation of the remnant isolated population of M. vittatus in the waters of Asian countries.
