Abstract
A survey was conducted to study the distribution and population of freshwater fish fauna of the Kinabalu Park. Fishes were sampled using electroshocker; the impact of water quality was also studied. Physical parameters were determined in-situ while several nutrient and heavy metal contents were analysed in the laboratory. A total of 22 species were found representing 5 families. Rasbora hubbsi Osteochilus spilurus and Nematabramis alestes are new listings for this area. Oreochromis mossambicus and Trichogaster trichopterus were not found although they had been reported previously. The distribution and population of fish were found to vary according to altitude and several physical parameters of the waters.
