Mackerel is a common name applied to a number of different species of pelagic fish, mostly from the family Scombridae. They are found in both temperate and tropical seas, mostly living along the coast or offshore in the oceanic environment.
Herring are forage fish, mostly belonging to the family Clupeidae.
Cyprinus is the genus of typical carps in family Cyprinidae. Most species in the genus are of East Asia origin with only the common carp in Western Asia and Europe; this invasive species has also been introduced to many other regions around the world. Cyprinus are closely related to some more barb-like genera, such as Cyclocheilichthys and Barbonymus (tinfoils). The crucian carps (Carassius) of western Eurasia, which include the goldfish, are apparently not as closely related.
"Sardine" and "pilchard" are common names for various small, oily forage fish in the herring family Clupeidae. The term "sardine" was first used in English during the early 15th century and may come from the Italian island of Sardinia, around which sardines were once abundant.
The tinfoil barb is a tropical Southeast Asian freshwater fish of the family Cyprinidae. This species was originally described as Barbus schwanenfeldii by Pieter Bleeker in 1853, and has also been placed in the genera Barbodes and Puntius. The specific epithet is frequently misspelled schwanefeldii.
The term billfish refers to a group of predatory fish characterised by prominent bills, or rostra, and by their large size; some are longer than 4 m (13 ft). Billfish include sailfish and marlin, which make up the family Istiophoridae, and swordfish, sole member of the family Xiphiidae. They are apex predators which feed on a wide variety of smaller fish, crustaceans, and cephalopods. These two families are sometimes classified as belonging to the order Istiophoriformes, a group with origins in the Late Cretaceous around 71 million years ago with the two families diverging from one and another in the Late Miocene around 15 million years ago. However, they are also classified as being closely related to the mackerels and tuna within the suborder Scombroidei of the order Perciformes. However, the 5th edition of the Fishes of the World does recognise the Istiophoriformes as a valid order, albeit including the Sphyraenidae, the barracudas.
Barbonymus is a ray-finned fish genus in the family Cyprinidae, containing some barb species. The genus was only established in 1999, with the tinfoil barb as type species; thus, these fish are sometimes collectively called tinfoils. The new genus was established in recognition of the fact that some large Asian "barbs", formerly rather indiscriminately lumped in Barbus, Barbodes and Puntius, form a distinct evolutionary lineage.
A barb is one of various ray-finned fish species in a non-phylogenetic group, with members in the family Cyprinidae, and especially the genera Barbus and Puntius, but many others also. They were formerly united with the barbels in the subfamily Barbinae but that group is paraphyletic with the Cyprininae. If the Labeoninae are recognized as distinct, many small African "barbs" would probably, however, warrant recognition as a new subfamily.
Chonerhinos naritus, the bronze pufferfish or yellow pufferfish, is a species of pufferfish native to Southeast Asia, where mainly found in estuarine and coastal habitats. This species grows to a length of 28.5 centimetres (11.2 in) TL, but otherwise it generally resembles the smaller and more strictly freshwater Auriglobus pufferfish. This predatory species feeds on other fish, crustaceans and snails.
The beardless barb is a species of freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is widespread in Southeast Asia. It grows to 25 cm (9.8 in) total length.
Cyclocheilichthys enoplos is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclocheilichthys from south-east Asia and the Malay Archipelago.
Cyclocheilichthys furcatus, the Mekong giant barb, is a species of cyprinid fish in the genus Cyclocheilichthys found in the Mekong.
Cyclocheilichthys heteronema is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclocheilichthys. They inhabit freshwater bodies of water in the Malay Peninsula, Borneo, and the Chao Phraya and Mekong basins.
Cyclocheilichthys janthochir is a species of freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is known from the Kapuas River in West Kalimantan, Borneo (Indonesia).
Cyclocheilichthys schoppeae is a species of cyprinid fish in the genus Cyclocheilichthys from the north of Palawan in the Philippines.
Cyclocheilichthys sinensis is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Cyclocheilichthys.
Hypsibarbus lagleri is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Hypsibarbus which is endemic to the middle Mekong basin in Cambodia, Laos and Thailand. It is fished for as a food fish and marketed fresh.
Anematichthys repasson is a species of freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae. It lives in Southeast Asia. Specifically, it occurs in the Mekong and Chao Phraya basins, Malay Peninsula, Sumatra, Java, and Borneo. It grows to 28 cm (11 in) SL. It is a minor commercial fishery species that lives in rivers, canals, ponds and reservoirs.
