Background The genus Betta (family Osphronemidae) comprises over 70 species, many of which are endemic to Southeast Asia and highly vulnerable to habitat loss. While Betta splendens is well studied due to its importance in the ornamental fish trade, most wild Betta species remain poorly characterized, particularly at the genomic level. The Bangka Islands of Indonesia harbor several endemic Betta species threatened by peatland degradation. Methods We conducted an integrated meristic and genomic c
