Sinogastromyzon puliensis is a hillstream loach endemic to western river drainages of central and southern Taiwan. It is considered endangered across some of its range and has been protected by the Wildlife Conservation Act of Taiwan since 1989, and those in the trade appear to be collected and exported illegally. It lives in riffles and rapids with swift currents.
