Kryptopterus bicirrhis

''Kryptopterus bicirrhis'', often called the glass catfish, is an Asian glass catfish species of the genus ''Kryptopterus''. Until 1989, the concept of ''K. bicirrhis'' included its smaller relative ''Kryptopterus vitreolus'' . Its scientific name ''K. bicirrhis'' and common name glass catfish are often still used in the aquarium fish trade to refer to the actual ''K. vitreolus''; as it seems, the larger and more aggressive true ''K. bicirrhis'' was only ever exported in insignificant numbers.

In western Borneo, where ''K. minor'' and ''K. bicirrhis'' are sympatric, both species are known as ''lais tipis'' in the Malay language, but when locals want to distinguish the two, they refer to ''K. minor'' as ''lais limpok''. In Cambodia, where it is known as ''trey kes prak'', the Khmer people use the ghost catfish as a key ingredient in the fine fish condiment ''prahoc''.
