Invasive introduced fish species are well known for their deleterious impacts on aquatic biodiversity and environment. This study provides the first report on the occurrence of introduced Amazon sailfin catfish, Pterygoplichthys pardalis from the Gombak basin, Selangor, Malaysia, where the suckermouth catfish, Hypostomus plecostomus and vermiculated sailfin catfish, Pterygoplichthys disjunctivus had been previously reported. Besides, selected morphometric and meristic measurements between P. pardalis and P. disjunctivus from the Pusu River, Gombak basin were compared. Moreover, we also described two body patterns of the P. pardalis collected from the river. The body pattern which does not fit entirely with the known characteristics of P. pardalis or P. disjunctivus is suspected to be a result of hybridization between Abdulwakil Olawale Saba, Nor Fariza Rasli, Ahmad Ismail, Syaizwan Zahmir Zulkifli, Intan Faraha A. Ghani, Abdullah Halim Muhammad-Rasul and Mohammad Noor Azmai Amal 694 Pertanika J. Trop. Agric. Sci. 43 (4): 693 703 (2020) both species, but deeper study should be conducted to confirm this claim.
