A new species of fresh water fish Labeo Lankae once believed to be extinct has been found by the National Aquatic Resources Research Development Agency (NARA) in the Knuckles Range yesterday.
A NARA official said this particular fish was last found in 1980 by Professor Ravi Senanayake when he was doing research for his PhD.
