Genera in the family or subfamily Danioninae: [ 21 ] records


Allochela (subgenus of Chela) Silas [E. G.] 1958:64, 87 Fem. Chela (Allochela) fasciata Silas 1958. Type by original designation. •Synonym of Chela Hamilton 1822 -- (Roberts 1989:31 [ref. 6439]). •Synonym of Laubuka Bleeker 1859 -- (Kottelat 2013:118 [ref. 32989]). Current status: Synonym of Laubuka Bleeker 1859. Danionidae: Danioninae.

Betadevario Pramod [P. K.], Fang [F.], Rema Devi [K.], Liao [T.-Y.], Indra [T. J.], Jameela Beevi [K. S.] & Kullander [S. O.] 2010:35 Masc. Betadevario ramachandrani Pramod, Fang, Rema Devi, Liao, Indra, Jameela Beevi et al. 2010.

Brachydanio (subgenus of Danio) Weber [M.] & de Beaufort [L. F.] 1916:85 Masc. Nuria albolineata Blyth 1860. Type by monotypy. Due to a mistake of the gender of Danio, Weber & de Beaufort 1916 used Danio (Brachydanio) albolineata (Blyth 1860) for the included species. Because the new genus-group name was introduced as a subgenus, no conclusion can be drawn on the gender of the new name; see also Kottelat 2013:83 [ref. 32989]. •Synonym of Danio Hamilton 1822, but a valid subgenus Brachydanio as described -- (Jayaram 1981:81 [ref. 6497]). •Valid as Brachydanio Weber & de Beaufort 1916 -- (Kottelat 1985:261 [ref. 11441], Kottelat 1989:6 [ref. 13605], Doi 1997:20 [ref. 22832], Hänfling & Brandl 2000:267 [ref. 25144], Sen 2007:27 [ref. 29657], Kottelat 2013:83 [ref. 32989]). •Synonym of Danio Hamilton 1822 -- (Barman 1991:16 [ref. 22192], Fang 2001:20 [ref. 25285], Fang 2001:15 [ref. 25288], Fang 2003:000 [ref. 27255], Kullander et al. 2009:193 [ref. 30704]).

Bleeker 1860:274, 297, 468-469 [ref. 380] with two species in Laubuca Bleeker = Laubuka, it is not quiet clear if Bleeker proposed to select Laubuca as correct name.
