Hemibagrus filamentus is a species of catfish endemic to
crustaceans, aquatic insect larvae and plant material. When migrating, it moves into smaller tributaries and in flooded areas with rising water level;[2]
they spawn from June to July. It is listed as a junior synonym of H. nemurus and research is often confused with H. nemurus. It is fished for food by small-scale commercial fisheries but exact threats are unknown and nothing else is known about this fish thus the Data Deficient listing.
