Xenocypris Yunnanensis
''Xenocypris yunnanensis'', the Kunming nase, is a species of ray-finned fish in the genus ''Xenocypris''. It is endemic to Lake Dianchi in Yunnan Province, China. The species started to decline in the 1970s and has not been caught in the lake after two specimens were collected in 1985; it may be extinct. Its demise is likely due to introduced fish species, grass carp The grass carp (''Ctenopharyngodon idella'') is a species of large herbivorous freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae, native to the Pacific Far East, with a native range stretching from northern Vietnam to the Amur River on the Sino-Russian .... It was also impacted by over-fishing and pollution. They grow to a maximum length of 23 cm (9 inches). They are dark grayish with a silvery white belly, gray dorsal fin, reddish anal fin and orange red caudal fin. They have a rounded belly, blunt snout, eyes on the lateral of their heads, small and transverse mouth. References {{Taxonbar, from=Q249949 Xenocyprina ...

Xenocypris Davidi
''Xenocypris davidi'' () is a freshwater fish native to the Pearl River, Hainan Island, the Yangtze River, the Yellow River and the southeast coast of China. It is the subject of artisanal fishing Artisanal fishing (or traditional/subsistence fishing) consists of various small-scale, low-technology, low-capital, fishing practices undertaken by individual fishing households (as opposed to commercial fishing). Many of these households are o ..., sport fishing, and a nascent aquaculture attempt.

Cyprinid
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 ...
