The Kanglang fish (Anabarilius grahami) is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Xenocyprididae, the East Asian minnows or sharpbellies. [3] It is a pelagic species endemic to Fuxian Lake in Yunnan, southern China. [4] However, the species may now be in the process of extinction because of the introduced noodlefish Neosalanx taihuensis, with which it is competing for food. [5]
