picture info	Ray-finned Fish Actinopterygii (; ), members of which are known as ray-finned fishes, is a class of bony fish. They comprise over 50% of living vertebrate species. The ray-finned fishes are so called because their fins are webs of skin supported by bony or horny spines (rays), as opposed to the fleshy, lobed fins that characterize the class Sarcopterygii (lobe-finned fish). These actinopterygian fin rays attach directly to the proximal or basal skeletal elements, the radials, which represent the link or connection between these fins and the internal skeleton (e.g., pelvic and pectoral girdles). By species count, actinopterygians dominate the vertebrates, and they constitute nearly 99% of the over 30,000 species of fish. They are ubiquitous throughout freshwater and marine environments from the deep sea to the highest mountain streams. Extant species can range in size from ''Paedocypris'', at , to the massive ocean sunfish, at , and the long-bodied oarfish, at . The vast majority of Actinoptery ...

	Labeobarbus ''Labeobarbus'' is a mid-sized ray-finned fish genus in the family Cyprinidae. Its species are widely distributed throughout eastern Africa and especially southern Africa, but also in Lake Tana in Ethiopia. A common name, in particular for the southern species, is yellowfish. The scientific name refers to the fact that these large barbs remind of the fairly closely related " carps" in the genus ''Labeo'' in size and shape. As far as can be told, all ''Labeobarbus'' species are hexaploid.de Graaf ''et al.'' (2007), IUCN (2009) Systematics Like many other "barbs", it was long included in ''Barbus''. It appears to be a fairly close relative of the typical barbels and relatives – the genus ''Barbus'' proper –, but closer still to the large Near Eastern species nowadays separated in ''Carasobarbus''. ''Barbus'' has been split to account for the improved phylogenetic knowledge which indicated it was highly paraphyletic in its wide circumscription –, it may be ...
