Pseudomugil
''Pseudomugil'' is a genus of fish in the subfamily Pseudomugilinae endemic to Australia and New Guinea, where they are found in freshwater rivers and streams and bodies of brackish water. Description Members of this genus have slender bodies and two dorsal fins. They are usually sexually dimorphic.Saeed, B., Ivantsoff, W. & Allen, G.R. (1989): Taxonomic Revision of the Family Pseudomugilidae (Order Atheriniformes). ''Australian Journal of Marine and Freshwater Research, 40 (6): 719-787.'' The name of this genus is a combination of ''pseudo'' meaning "false" and ''mugil'' meaning "mullet", referring to the resemblance of the body shape of this genus to that of the unrelated mullets. Species There are currently 16 recognized species in this genus: * '' Pseudomugil connieae'' ( G. R. Allen, 1981) (Popondetta blue-eye) * '' Pseudomugil cyanodorsalis'' G. R. Allen & Sarti, 1983 (Neon blue-eye) * '' Pseudomugil furcatus'' Nichols, 1955 (Fork-tail blue-eye) * '' Pseudomugil gertruda ...

Pseudomugil Mellis
The honey blue-eye (''Pseudomugil mellis'') is an endangered species of fish in the subfamily Pseudomugilinae. It is Endemism, endemic to southeastern Queensland, Queensland, Australia, where it is found in mildly acidic, often tannin-stained, ponds and streams in wallum habitat. Taxonomy Previously considered a colour variant of the related pacific blue-eye (''Pseudomugil signifer''), the honey blue-eye was described by Gerald R. Allen and Walter Ivantsoff in 1982. The species name is derived from the Latin word ''mel'' "honey". It is markedly smaller than its close relative. It was confirmed genetically as distinct in a molecular study of it and the Pacific blue-eye in 2004. Description The honey blue-eye is a small, pale honey coloured fish that can attain up to in length as an adult, with the largest recorded being a male of . As the common name suggests, the honey blue-eye has blue eyes. It has blue cheeks and a single fine midlateral line running along its body from the ti ...

The neon blue-eye (''Pseudomugil cyanodorsalis'') or blueback blue-eye, is a species of fish in the subfamily Pseudomugilinae. It is found in northern Australia, in the Gulf Country, the Kimberley and around Darwin. First described in 1983, they have become established in the aquarium trade worldwide.

Pseudomugil Gertrudae
The spotted blue-eye (''Pseudomugil gertrudae'') is a species of fish in the family Pseudomugilidae. It is native to Papua New Guinea and northern Australia. It adapts readily to captivity and can be kept in a small freshwater aquarium. Taxonomy Max Carl Wilhelm Weber described ''Pseudomugil gertrudae'' in 1911 from specimens collected from Trangan Island in the Aru Islands, naming it in honour of Gertrude, the wife of Dr. Hugo Merton, who visited the islands in 1907–08. Common names include spotted blue-eye, delicate blue-eye, Gertrude's blue-eye, and northern blue-eye. Description The spotted blue-eye has an elongated body generally up to 2.5 cm (1 in), or rarely 3 cm (1.2 in) in length.

Renyaan from types collected in southern Irian Jaya at two locations one a tributary of the Kopi River approximately of the Tembagapura Road and from the mile 39 Camp of the Freeport Mining Company in 1995.

Pseudomugilinae
The Pseudomugilidae, the blue-eyes, are a subfamily of atheriniform fish in the rainbowfish family Melanotaeniidae. They inhabit fresh and brackish water in Australia, New Guinea and nearby smaller islands. Blue-eyes are small fish, typically no more than in length. Like the larger Melanotaeniid rainbowfish, they spawn all year round, and attach their eggs to vegetation. Genera There are three general in the Pseudomugilinae: * '' Kiunga'' G. R.

Pseudomugil Connieae
The Popondetta blue-eye (''Pseudomugil connieae'') or Popondetta rainbowfish, is a species of fish in the subfamily Pseudomugilinae. It is endemic to Papua New Guinea where it occurs at three localities around Popondetta in the east of the country. This species inhabits clear, fast flowing freshwater streams, although it has been reported from brackish water. This species was described in 1981 as ''Popondetta connieae'' by Gerald R. Allen from a typelocality of Auga Creek, about south of Popondetta where Allen collected the 200 types along with Brian Parkinson. Allen gave it the specific name ''connieae'' to honour his wife, Connie, who normally prepared Allen's manuscripts for publication. This species is sought-after in the aquarium An aquarium (plural: ''aquariums'' or ''aquaria'') is a vivarium of any size having at least one transparent side in which aquatic plants or animals are kept and displayed.
