Triplophysa is a genus of fish in the family Nemacheilidae found mainly in and around the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau in China. Currently, the genus is a mixed assemblage of species. Some lineages have been identified and treated as subgenera, but as Wikipedia follows Fishbase for fish species all but Hedinichthys have been treated as subgenera in Wikipedia, although Kottelat in his revision of the loaches did recognise them as valid. FishBase, however, includes these in Triplophysa without specifying subgenera and treats the names given by Kottelat as synonyms.
Triplophysa xiangxiensis is a species of stone loach endemic to Yuan River in Hunan, China. It is a cave-dwelling species. It grows to 9.9 cm (3.9 in) SL.
Triplophysa brahui is a species of stone loach in the genus Triplophysa. It is found in Baluchistan, Pakistan and in the Helmand River watershed in Afghanistan.
Triplophysa choprai, the snow loach, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Triplophysa.
Triplophysa dalaica is a species of stone loach. It is only known from Hulun Lake in Inner Mongolia, China; it is believed to occur more widely as fish in this genus typically occur in running water.
Triplophysa dorsalis, the Grey Stone Loach, is a species of stone loach in the genus Triplophysa that lives in freshwater. It is found in Uzbekistan, Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan and Xinjiang.
Triplophysa gracilis is a species of stone loach in the genus Triplophysa. It is found in Pakistan, India, and China. It grows to 11 cm (4.3 in) SL and lives in standing waters and deeper parts of rivers.
Triplophysa grahami is a small species of stone loach from China. It is endemic to the Jinsha River basin in Yunnan, Southwest China. There is also a record from Lishe River, but this is believed to be a different species. It grows to 9.1 cm (3.6 in) standard length. It lives in the spaces between stones and floating grasses in slow streams.
Triplophysa griffithii is a small species of stone loach from Afghanistan and China. It grows to 8.3 cm (3.3 in) total length.
Triplophysa herzensteini is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Triplophysa , it is placed in the subgenus Labiatophysa which is regarded by some authorities a valid genus.
Triplophysa intermedia is a species of stone loach in the genus Triplophysa. The species has only been found in Hulun Lake in Inner Mongolia, China; but is believed to appear in other locations as well since fish in this genus are typically found in running water.
Triplophysa kashmirensis is a species of stone loach in the genus Triplophysa found in India and Pakistan.
Triplophysa kullmanni is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus Triplophysa. It is endemic to Afghanistan.

Triplophysa marmorata, the Kashmir Triplophysa-loach, is a species of ray-finned fish found in Asia. It's a scaleless inland fish that is endemic of wetlands like the Wular Lake in Jammu and Kashmir, India. Like similar species T. kashmirensis, it presents a slender caudal peduncle, but it's shorter in the case of T. marmorata. Its specimens can also be differentiated because of their shorter lateral line length. Their diet is composed of detritus, plants that coat rocks and stones, and the associated invertebrate fauna. They reach maturity after two years.
Triplophysa orientalis is a species of stone loach. It is a freshwater fish from the Tibetan Plateau and is endemic to China; its distribution includes the upper reaches of the Yangtze and Yellow Rivers, among others. It lives in a wide range of habitats, both lentic and lotic. The species is widespread but populations tend to be isolated and show high degree of genetic divergence.
Triplophysa stewarti is a species of stone loach in the genus Triplophysa. It lives in slow-flowing rivers and lakes among rocks and vegetation; it is found in numerous lakes and in upper Salween, Indus, and Brahmaputra drainages in Tibet as well as in Kashmir, India.
