Hemibagrus planiceps is a bagrid catfish endemic to western Java, known only from seven river systems including the Citarum and Ciliwung. It occurs in the upper parts of river basins, in clear, fast-flowing water over rock or sand. It has been confused in the past with H. gracilis, H. velox and H. bongan, and the population once thought to inhabit northwestern Peninsular Malaysia has been described as H. divaricatus.
