Rectoris longibarbus

Rectoris longibarbus is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Cyprinidae, the family which includes the carps, barbs. minnows and related fishes. [2] This species is known only from its type locality, a temporary spring emerging from a karst formation which dries up outside of the rainy season in Jingxi County, Guangxi. Rectoris posehensis , Paranemachilus jinxiensis , Prolixicheilus longisulcus and Cophecheilus bamen were also found in the spring. The area around the spring has been subjected to earthquakes and has been heavily mined, surveys conducted for this species at its type locality have not found any more. The International Union for Conservation of Nature has classified it as Critically Endangered. [1]

Eirmotus octozona is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish beloning to the family Cyprinidae, a diverse family which includes the carps, barbs, minnows and related fishes. This species is thought to be found in southern Peninsular Malaysia but its range is uncertain as it is only known from the aquarium trade. It was first formally described in 1959 by the American ichthyologist Leonard Peter Schultz with its type locality given as Bueng Boraphet in central Thailand. This is likely to be an error as there is no suitable habitat, peat swamp, for Eirmotus species at this location and it has not been recorded there since. Like other species in the genus Eirmotus, of which this is the [[type species, this species is a small fish with a maximum published standard length of 3.6 cm (1.4 in).

Rectoris longifinus is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Cyprinidae, the family which includes the carps, barbs. minnows and related fishes. This species is endemic to Yunnan in China. This species was fisrt formally described) in 2002 from Zhoxi in Shilin County and said to be similar to R. posehensis, however, other authors consider that this species is unlikely to be a member of the genus Rectoris and that it is generic placement awaits further study.

Rectoris luxiensis is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Cyprinidae, the family which includes the carps, barbs. minnows and related fishes. This species is endemic to China where it is found in the Yuan Jiang in Hunan, Qing Jiang in Hubei Province) and the Daninghe River in Sichuan. One study found that there were no discernible differences between the specimens of this species and the types of R. mutabilis suggested that R. mutabilis is s senior synonym of R, luxiensis. Eschmeyer's Catalog of Fishes, however, recognises both these taxa as valid species.
