Vernacular names
English: Barb Fish

Barbodes is a genus of small to medium-sized cyprinid fish native to tropical Asia. The majority of the species are from Southeast Asia. Many species are threatened and some from the Philippines (Lake Lanao) are already extinct. A survey carried out in 1992 only found three of the endemic Barbodes species,[1] and only two (Barbodes lindog and B. tumba) were found in 2008.[2] Several members of this genus were formerly included in Puntius.[3]
Etymology

The name is derived from the Latin word barbus, meaning "barbel", and the Greek word oides, meaning "similar to".
Spotted barb, Barbodes binotatus
Spanner barb, Barbodes lateristriga
Chinese barb, Barbodes semifasciolatus
Gold barbs
(B. semifasciolatus var. schuberti)

Note on species list: Kottelat 2013 states that B. dorsimaculatus may not be referable to this genus and considers it to be species inquirenda. He also implies that Barbodes should be restricted to Southeast Asian and Philippine endemics and that the following species from eastern and southern Asia may not be referable to this genus: B. bovanicus, B. carnaticus, B. elongatus, B. polylepis and B. wynaadensis. Because these species fall outside of the geographic area of his paper, their position in Cyprinidae is not addressed.[3]
