<i>Sundadanio</i> Genus of fishes

Sundadanio is a genus of freshwater ray-finned fishes and it is one of two genera in the family Sundadanionidae, known as the tiny danios. These fishes are typically found in 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.

This fish is known only from Bintan Island in the Riau Islands east of Sumatra. 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.
