Labeo diochilus is a freshwater fish from the cyprinid family. It lives in rivers with fast currents in South Asia and uses special lips for feeding on stones.
Labeo diochilus differs from other cyprinid fish with its fringed lips and adaptation to fast mountain rivers. It helps clean water from growths and serves as an important part of the food chain.
Immature form that undergoes metamorphosis before adulthood.
