Comments: Type locality, lower reaches of Sungai Keliling, Juara, ZRC 46412 (holotype of Stiphofon aureorostrum, 5.2 cm SL, male). Known only from the freshwater streams of Pulau Tioman, Peninsular Malaysia. Found in the lower reaches of Sungai Keliling, Juara Bay, eastern Tioman; however an individual was observed by ISC in the lower reaches of Sungai Paya on the western side of the island. Apparently rare in the type locality, which seems to be predominated by Glossogobius celebius (Ref. 58086).

Estimates based on models

Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref. 82804):  PD50 = 0.5000   [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01122 (0.00514 - 0.02450), b=3.04 (2.87 - 3.21), in cm Total Length, based on all LWR estimates for this body shape (Ref. 93245).
Resilience (Ref. 120179):  High, minimum population doubling time less than 15 months (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref. 59153):  Low vulnerability (10 of 100).
