Barbus[1]
is a
genus of
fish in the
Cyprinidae family.
The type species of this genus is the barbel, Cyprinus
barbus, now called
Barbus barbus.
Members of Barbus have a great deal of
similarity to the genus
Puntius and many species have been relocated back
and forth in taxonomic debates.
Some species are commonly referred to as the
Barb or barbel. The name comes from the fact that most of
the members of the genera have a pair of barbels on their mouths which they sometimes use to
search for food at the bottom of the water.
Historically, fish commonly known as
barbs were members of the genus Barbus, more
recently many 'barbs' (including common
aquarium species) have been reclassified into the genus
Puntius and other genera.
