The distribution of Myersglanis blythii is listed as Nepal in the catfish checklist. The one pictured in the Cat E log was collected from around Darjeeling (India) if I remember correctly.
Myersglanis jayarami was described from Manipur,India. Any chance the picture of the Myersglanis in the Cat E Log is actually M.jayarami???

Re: Myersglanis blythii
I have briefly examined material from both West Bengal and Nepal, and I consider them to be the same species.
