Badidae (Chameleonfishes)
Etymology: Badis: 'badis' is presumably a Bengali local name, possibly derived from 'bhedo' or 'bheda', but it lacks a proper reference. Probably incorrect etymology (J. Müller, pers. comm., April 2021, after information from native speakers).
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Écologie
; eau douce benthopélagique. Tropical
Asia: Mekong basin in Laos and Thailand, Salween and Irrawaddy basins.
