Carassius is a genus in the family Cyprinidae. Species in this genus are commonly known as crucian carp or carp, although these names are essentially used to refer to the species C. carassius. The best-known is probably the goldfish (C. auratus), which was bred from the Prussian carp (C. gibelio). Species in this genus have a distribution throughout the Eurasia, seemingly originating further west than the typical carp-like species (genus Cyprinus), including the common carp (C. carpio).
They are not particularly close relatives of the genus Cyprinus, but rather a more basal lineage of the subfamily Cyprininae.
