Batasio
''Batasio'' is a genus of catfish of the family Bagridae. These small fish are found in fast-flowing hillstreams throughout South and mainland Southeast Asia. Taxonomy ''Batasio'' was first described by Edward Blyth in 1860 with ''Batasio buchanani'' (a needless renaming of ''Batasio batasio'') designated as type. ''B. pakistanicus'', described in 1989, is tentatively placed in ''Batasio'', but its generic placement is questionable. Species There are currently 17 recognized species in this genus: * ''Batasio affinis'' Blyth, 1860 * ''Batasio batasio'' ( F. Hamilton, 1822) * ''Batasio convexirostrum'' Darshan, Anganthoibi & Vishwanath, 2011 * ''Batasio dayi'' ( Vinciguerra, 1890) * ''Batasio elongatus'' H. H. Ng, 2004 * ''Batasio fasciolatus'' H. H.
