Schistura menanensis is a species of ray-finned fish, a stone loach in the genus Schistura. It has only been recorded in the Mae Nam Nan drainage, a branch of the Chao Phraya in Thailand where it has been observed in streams with moderate to fast currents, in riffles, with gravel to stone beds.[1] The specific name menanensis refers to the type locality of this species on the Mae Nam Nam.[3]
