Cyprinidae
Cyprinidae is a family of freshwater fish commonly called the carp or minnow family. It includes the carps, the true minnows, and relatives like the barbs and barbels. Cyprinidae is the largest and most diverse fish family and the largest vertebrate animal family in general with about 3,000 species, of which only 1,270 remain extant, divided into about 370 genera. Cyprinids range from about 12 mm in size to the giant barb (''Catlocarpio siamensis''). By genus and species count, the family makes up more than two-thirds of the ostariophysian order Cypriniformes. The family name is derived from the Greek word ( 'carp'). Biology and ecology Cyprinids are stomachless fish with toothless jaws. Even so, food can be effectively chewed by the gill rakers of the specialized last gill bow. These pharyngeal teeth allow the fish to make chewing motions against a chewing plate formed by a bony process of the skull. The pharyngeal teeth are unique to each species and are used by scient ...

Carassius Wild Golden Fish 2013 G1
''Carassius ''is a genus in the ray-finned fish family Cyprinidae. Most species in this genus are commonly known as crucian carps, though this term often specifically refers to '' C. carassius''. The most well known is the goldfish (''C. auratus''). They have a Eurasian distribution, apparently originating further to the west than the typical carps (''Cyprinus''), which include the common carp (''C. carpio''). Species of ''Carassius'' are not particularly close relatives of the typical carps of ''Cyprinus'', but rather form a more basal lineage of the subfamily Cyprininae.de Graaf, Martin; Megens, Hendrik-Jan; Samallo, Johannis & Sibbing, Ferdinand A.

Cyprinus Carpio 1879
''Cyprinus'' is the genus of typical carps in family Cyprinidae. Most species in the genus are of East Asia origin with only the common carp (''C. carpio'') in Western Asia and Europe; this invasive species has also been introduced to many other regions around the world. ''Cyprinus'' are closely related to some more barb-like genera, such as ''Cyclocheilichthys'' and ''Barbonymus'' (tinfoils). The crucian carps (''Carassius'') of western Eurasia, which include the goldfish (''C. auratus''), are apparently not as closely related. This genus's most widespread and well-known member is the common carp (''C. carpio'') species complex. Although traditionally considered a single species, recent authorities have split the European and West Asian populations from the East Asian, with the latter named '' C. rubrofuscus'' ( syn. ''C. carpio haematopterus''). Members of the species complex are famed as a food fish and have been widely traded and introduced since antiquity, but in certai ...

Barbonymus Schwanenfeldii Bleeker
''Barbonymus'' is a ray-finned fish genus in the family Cyprinidae, containing some barb species. The genus was only established in 1999, with the tinfoil barb (''B. schwanenfeldii'') as type species; thus, these fish are sometimes collectively called tinfoils. The new genus was established in recognition of the fact that some large Asian "barbs", formerly rather indiscriminately lumped in ''Barbus'' (typical barbels and relatives), ''Barbodes'' (barb-like carps) and '' Puntius'' (spotted barbs), form a distinct evolutionary lineage. They are actually very close relatives of the common carp (''Cyprinus carpio''). Even though only five species are included at present, it is not certain whether these form a monophyletic lineage; the Java barb (''B. gonionotus'') for example seems to be very close indeed to ''Cyclocheilichthys'', which unites a number of barb-like " carps". Past hybridization is known widely in Cyprinidae, and confounds molecular and other cladistic studies rel ...
