Taxonomy

Cyprinidae is a large, widespread and diverse family of, mainly, freshwater ray-finned fish and the taxonomy of the family has not yet been fully resolved and the subfamilies do not appear to have a single accepted taxonomy. Some authorities place the genera above in the larger subfamilies Oxygasterinae or Xenocypridinae.[2] However, genetic and morphological studies have supported the view that the five general currently assigned to the subfamily Xenocyprinae form a monophyletic grouping.[3]
