The Jullien's Golden Carp, Seven-striped Barb, Barbeau De Jullien, or Carpilla Ikan Temoleh (Probarbus jullieni) is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish in the Cyprinidae family. It is found in Cambodia, Laos, Malaysia, Thailand, and Vietnam. It is large, attaining 150 cm in length and 70 kg in weight, and resides primarily in the main stems of major rivers such as the Mekong. It is considered an excellent food fish but it expensive due to scarcity. Overfishing is considered the primary cause for the precarious status of the fish.
