Cypriniformes /sɪˈprɪnɪfɔːrmiːz/ is an order of ray-finned fish, which includes many families and genera of cyprinid (carps and their kin) fish, such as barbs, gobies, loaches, botias, and minnows (among others). Cypriniformes is an "order-within-an-order", placed under the superorder Ostariophysi—which is also made up of cyprinid, ostariophysin fishes. The order contains 11–12 families (with some authorities having listed as many as 23),[2] over 400 genera, and more than 4,250 named species; new species are regularly described, and new genera are recognized frequently.[3][4] Cyprinids are most diverse in South and Southeast Asia, but are entirely absent from Australia and South America.[5] At 112 years old, the longest-lived cypriniform fish documented is the bigmouth buffalo.[6]
Their closest living relatives are the Characiformes (characins, tetras and their kin), the Gymnotiformes (electric eel and American knifefishes), and the Siluriformes (catfishes).[7]
