Rheocles sikorae is native to Madagascar, where found in the Mangoro stream, high valley of the east coast of the island, and in the Manambola River near Anosibe.[2]
At one point in time, this species was thought to be extinct, but since 1996 it has been collected from five forested stream localities near the town of Marolambo.[1]
Rheocles sikorae was described by Henri Émile Sauvage in 1891 as Eleotris sikorae with a type locality given as "Madagascar".[3] Sauvage honoured the Austrian explorer Franz Sikora (1863-1902), who collected the type.[4]
