Cochlefelis is a genus of sea catfishes found in coastal and freshwaters from Southeast Asia to Australia. There are currently four described species in this genus.
Austroglanis is the only genus in the catfish family Austroglanididae. This family was split off from the Bagridae catfish family. All three species of catfishes in the family Austroglanididae are endemic to southern Africa, and two species are threatened.
Dianema is a small genus of freshwater catfish in the Callichthyinae subfamily of the armored catfish family. The type species for this genus is Dianema longibarbis. The name is derived from the Greek di, meaning "two", and nema, meaning "filament". The two species of Dianema share approximately the same distribution, and are found in the Amazon River and lower courses of its tributaries. Dianema species have the habit of swimming midwater, as opposed to the bottom as in most callichthyids.
Bagrichthys is a genus of bagrid catfishes.
Oxydoras is a genus of thorny catfishes native to tropical South America.
Hyalobagrus is a genus of bagrid catfishes found in Southeast Asia.
Dekeyseria is a genus of suckermouth armored catfishes native to tropical South America.
Ictalurus is a genus of North American freshwater catfishes. It includes the well-known channel catfish and blue catfish.
Galeichthys is a genus of sea catfishes. The only genus in the subfamily Galeichthyinae, this genus includes four species.
Arius is a genus of catfishes of the family Ariidae. The genus Arius is distributed in brackish and fresh waters of Eastern Africa and south to Southeast Asia.
Heterobranchus is a genus of airbreathing catfishes native to Africa. However, H. palaeindicus, the only known extinct species of the genus, was discovered in the Siwalik Hills, India, dating to the Lower Pliocene.
Neoarius berneyi, the highfin catfish, Berney's catfish, Berney's shark catfish, or the lesser salmon catfish, is a freshwater sea catfish that is commonly kept in aquariums. The origin of the name Neoarius berneyi is Greek, with the genus name Neoarius coming from the words neos meaning new and arios, meaning warlike or hostile, in reference to the well developed fin spines, and the species name, berneyi, comes from the ornithologist F. L. Berney.
Bagre is a genus of sea catfishes found along the Atlantic and Pacific coasts of the Americas from southern North America to northern South America. Currently, four species are described:
Ariopsis is a genus of sea catfishes found along the Pacific and Atlantic coasts of the Americas. The genus has been merged with Sciades by some authorities.
Neoarius is a genus of sea catfishes found on and around the island New Guinea and Australia. They are found in marine, brackish waters and fresh waters with several species restricted solely to freshwater rivers. There are currently 10 described species in this genus.
Plicofollis is a genus of sea catfishes found along the coasts of the Indian Ocean from Africa to Australasia with some species ranging up into the Philippines. They occur in marine, brackish and fresh waters. There are currently eight described species in this genus.
Sciades is a genus of sea catfishes mostly found along the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea coasts of Central and South America. One species, S. dowii, occurs on the Pacific side from Panama to Ecuador, another, S. paucus, is a freshwater form found in Australia, while S. sona is a widespread species found along the Indian Ocean coasts of South Asia east into the Pacific to Polynesia. The genus Ariopsis has been merged with Sciades by some authorities.
