Rasbora
Genus of fishes
Rasbora is a genus of fish in the family Cyprinidae .[ 1] They are native to freshwater habitats in South and Southeast Asia , as well as southeast China .[ 1] A single species, R. gerlachi , is only known from an old specimen that reputedly originated from Africa (Cameroon ), but this locality is considered doubtful.[ 2] They are small, up to 17 cm (6.7 in) long, although most species do not surpass 10 cm (4 in) and many have a dark horizontal stripe.[ 1]
Several species are regularly kept in aquariums . As a common English name , "rasbora" is used for many species in the genus Rasbora , as well as several species in genera Brevibora , Boraras , Megarasbora , Metzia , Microdevario , Microrasbora , Rasboroides , Rasbosoma , Sawbwa , Trigonopoma and Trigonostigma .[ 3] Some of these related genera were included in the genus Rasbora in the past. In a 2007 analysis, Rasbora was found to not be a monophyletic assemblage. However Boraras and Trigonostigma were determined to be monophyletic.[ 4]
