Schistura maejotigrina is a species of stone loach, a freshwater fish, from northern Thailand.
The species was first described in 2012. From the Ping River drainage in the northern Chao Phraya River basin, fish of about 5 cm length were found in a stream near a waterfall and terraced rice fields. [1] The specimens were collected in fast flowing, clear water over a substrate of sand and gravel. [2]
