The fish live underwater, therefore, they are more difficult to study than terrestrial animals and plants, therefore, the information about fish populations is often lacking. However, freshwater fish seem particularly threatened, because they often live in relatively small water bodies. The present research was the first and new record of Nangra fish, Nangra robusta Mirza and Awan, (n=5) from River Panjkora, near Shaheed Benazir Bhutto University, Sheringal, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa, Pakistan during June 2013-July 2014. It was found through the literature that it was not collected before the present report throughout the river Panjkora. However, during the present research, it was first time collected by different fish-nets like cast-net, hook-net, hand-net and locally adopted devices. Moreover, it belongs to order Siluriformes, family Sissoridae and subfamily Sisorinae. Further, it is dark brown in color, body is short and compressed, abdomen is rounded but almost spindle-shaped with dorsal profile is slightly arched and ventral is almost straight. Additionally, its total length was 12±1 cm, however, standard length was 10±1 cm, furthermore, the diameter was 3±0.3 cm. Consequently, at the present, it was the newly recorded species from River Panjkora. Accordingly, a detail study is required for further exploration of N. robusta of river Panjkora, Sheringal, KP, Pakistan with special reference to the taxonomy, physiology and ecology.
