Eirmotus is a genus of cyprinid fish that is found in Southeast Asia. There are currently four recognized species in this genus.
Pangio is a genus of small Asian freshwater fish in the true loach family Cobitidae. In earlier taxonomic schemes it was known as Acanthophthalmus. The "kuhli loach" is well-known in the aquarium trade and commonly identified as P. kuhlii, but most individuals actually appear to be P. semicincta.
Rasbora is a genus of fish in the family Cyprinidae. They are native to freshwater habitats in South and Southeast Asia, as well as southeast China. A single species, R. gerlachi, is only known from an old specimen that reputedly originated from Africa (Cameroon), but this locality is considered doubtful. They are small, up to 17 cm (6.7 in) long, although most species do not surpass 10 cm (4 in) and many have a dark horizontal stripe.
Sundadanio is a genus of cyprinid fishes from freshwater habitats, typically peat swamps and blackwater streams, in Borneo and Sumatra in southeast Asia. At up to 2.3 cm (0.91 in) in standard length they are very small, but still larger than their close relatives Paedocypris. Species of the two genera are often found together.
Paedocypris is a genus of tiny cyprinid fish found in swamps and streams on the Southeast Asian islands of Borneo, Sumatra and Bintan.
Sundadanio axelrodi is a danionin in the family Cyprinidae. Originally described as a rasbora, Rasbora axelrodi, this tiny species was later deemed to be more closely related to the danios but not enough to be moved into the genus Danio. Sundadanio axelrodi reaches a maximum size of 1.7 cm. Sundadanio was considered monotypic until the genus was reassessed by Conway, Kottelat and Tan in 2011.
Carinotetraodon is a genus of small freshwater pufferfish found in South and Southeast Asia. Several species have commercial importance as aquarium fish.
Akysis is the largest genus of catfishes of the family Akysidae.
Barbodes is a genus of small to medium-sized cyprinid fish native to tropical Asia. The majority of the species are from Southeast Asia. Many species are threatened and some from the Philippines are already extinct. A survey carried out in 1992 only found three of the endemic Barbodes species, and only two were found in 2008. Several members of this genus were formerly included in Puntius.
Maurice Kottelat is a Swiss ichthyologist specializing in Eurasian freshwater fishes.
Betta, is a large genus of small, often colorful, freshwater ray-finned fishes, known as "bettas", in the gourami family (Osphronemidae). The best known Betta species is B. splendens, commonly known as the Siamese fighting fish.
Lobocheilos is a genus of fish in the family Cyprinidae native to Asia.
Kottelatlimia is a genus of loaches found in Southeast Asia.
Crossocheilus, also known as the "algae eaters", is a genus of fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is distributed in China, India, Indonesia, Malaysia and Thailand in Asia. These fish occur in several types of habitat, often fast-flowing rivers with rocky bottoms.
Osteochilus is a genus of cyprinid fishes mainly found in Southeast Asia with a few extending into adjacent parts of China. Additionally, two species are endemic to the Western Ghats in India.
Fangfangia spinicleithralis is a species of cyprinid fish endemic to Indonesia where it is found in the peat swamp forests of Kalimantan Tengah, Borneo. It is the only member of its genus. The genus name Fangfangia honors the Chinese-Swedish ichthyologist Fang Fang Kullander (1962-2010), who specialized in the study of cyprinid fishes.
Heok Hui Tan is a Singaporean ichthyologist at the Lee Kong Chian Natural History Museum of the National University of Singapore. Dr. Tan's main interest lies in the systematics of Southeast Asian freshwater fishes, encompassing taxonomy, ecology and biogeography. His primary areas of research focus on neglected and de novo habitats such as peat swamp forests, swamp forests, and rapids.
Eirmotus insignis is a species of cyprinid in the genus Eirmotus. It inhabits Borneo and Belitung in Indonesia.
Eirmotus furvus is a species of cyprinid in the genus Eirmotus. It lives in Sumatra, Indonesia, and has a maximum length of 3.4 cm.
Eirmotus isthmus is a species of cyprinid in the genus Eirmotus. It lives in Sumatra and Borneo in Indonesia, and its habitat is lakes and other bodies of water on floodplains. It has a maximum length of 3.3 cm.
