In Sri Lanka, three species occur. All are found in almost all habitats, but are known to prefer moist ones. The most common is Ichthyophis glutinosus, which is found in almost all altitudes; the others are I. orthoplicatus, which is found in similar habitat to I. glutinosus, but will not be found in lowlands below above sea level; and I. pseudangularis, found in lowlands below ASL. A new species was recently discovered called Ichthyophis multicolor.
