Barbucca is a genus of loaches native to Southeast Asia. It is currently the only genus in its family. [1] [2]
There are currently two recognized species in this genus: [3] [4]
Yasuhikotakia is a genus of botiid loaches, many which are popular aquarium fish. It is named in honor of Japanese collector/researcher Dr. Yasuhiko Taki. This genus has been separated from the genus Botia in the paper by Maurice Kottelat in 2004.
Cobitis is a genus of small freshwater fish in the family Cobitidae from temperate and subtropical Eurasia. It contains the "typical spiny loaches", including the well-known spined loach of Europe. Similar spiny loaches, occurring generally south of the range of Cobitis, are nowadays separated in Sabanejewia.
Gobio is a genus of typical gudgeons, ray-finned fish in the family Cyprinidae many of which are endemics of south-eastern Europe. Members of the genus are usually small fish, rarely longer than 10 cm.
Protocobitis is a genus of loaches endemic to Guangxi in China and living in caves.
Golden loaches (Sabanejewia) is a genus of ray-finned fish in the family Cobitidae.
Sundoreonectes is a genus consisting of two species of stone loaches from the southeast Asian island of Borneo.
Idiotropiscis is a genus of pygmy pipehorse endemic to Australia. They are commonly called pygmy pipehorses due to their small size.
Pseudoscaphirhynchus is a genus of relatively small, highly threatened sturgeons that are restricted to the Aral Sea system, including the Amu Darya and Syr Darya river basins, in Central Asia.
Amu-Darya stone loach is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Nemacheilus, although it os sometimes placed in the genus Oxynoemacheilus.
Triplophysa microphthalma is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Triplophysa, it is placed in the subgenus Labiatophysa which is regarded by some authorities as a valid genus.
Ponticola is a genus of gobies native mostly to fresh waters of the Black Sea - Caspian Sea region in Eurasia. Some species occur in the brackish-water Black and Caspian seas themselves. It was considered to be part of the broader goby subfamily Benthophilinae, also endemic to the same region, although the 5th edition of Fishes of the World does not list any subfamilies in the Gobiidae. Originally, Ponticola was described as subgenus of Neogobius.
Barbucca diabolica, the fire-eyed loach, is a very small loach native to the Malay Peninsula, Borneo and Thailand. It can be found in small forest streams and backwaters, where it eats algae, detritus and small invertebrates. It can reach a length of 2.3 cm (0.91 in). The population is unknown but is considered to be declining sharply in Thailand; it is threatened by forest loss and stream modification. It exists in protected areas but It may be confused with other species so clarification is needed.
Bhavania is a small genus of loaches of the family Balitoridae.
Ellopostoma is a small genus of loaches native to Southeast Asia. This is the only genus in the family Ellopostomatidae, having been confirmed as being in a family of its own by M. Kottelat in his review of the loaches in 2012.
Paranemachilus is a genus of stone loaches endemic to China.
Pteronemacheilus is a genus of stone loaches.
Sectoria is a small genus of stone loaches native to eastern Asia.
Tuberoschistura is a small genus of stone loaches found in Southeast Asia.
Vaillantella, the long-fin loaches, is a small genus of loaches found in Southeast Asia. This genus is the only member of the family Vaillantellidae having been confirmed as such by M. Kottelat in his review of the loaches in 2012.
