“…However, the morphological grouping of the schizothoracins had been challenged by recent molecular evidences (Li et al, 2008;Yang et al, 2015a;Yonezawa et al, 2014). The present phylogeny revealed two independent origins of these Tibetan Plateau endemic polyploid cyprinids, migrating independently of each other to the Tibetan Plateau and adapted to high altitude (Yonezawa et al, 2014).…”

Origin and diversification of the Tibetan polyploid cyprinids (schizothoracins) may help us to explore relationships between diversification of the cyprinids and the Tibetan Plateau uplift. Cyprininae phylogeny was analyzed using mitochondrial and nuclear DNA sequences to trace origins of polyploidy and diversifications of schizothoracins. Ancestral states reconstruction for ploidy levels indicated that the Cyprininae was diploid origin and the schizothoracin clades tetraploid origins. There were two diversification rate shifts along with diversification of the cyprinine fishes in response to the Tibetan uplift. The unusual diversification shifts were located to branches subtending the clades of Tibetan polyploid cyprinids. Our analyses suggested that (i) phylogeny of Cyprininae recovered two independent origins of the Tibetan polyploidy schizothoracins; (ii) diversifications of the schizothoracins were closely related to the Neogene uplift of the Tibetan plateau in the following ways: the relatively ancient Late Oligocene-Middle Miocene adaptive radiation may be associated with the uplift of the southern Tibet and Himalaya; the Middle Miocene-Early Pleistocene lineage-specific diversification broadly coincident with major phase of the Neogene Tibetan uplift; and the most recent Pleistocene diversification shift in Schizothorax closely coincident with the successive Kunlun-Huanghe and Gonghe movements of the Tibetan uplift and the glaciation-induced climate oscillations on the plateau.Cyprininae, polyploid, schizothoracins, the Tibetan Plateau, diversifications Citation:Wang, X., Gan, X., Li J., Chen, Y., and He, S.

“…At this time, the inter-familial relationships within the order are reaching consensus (Yang et al 2015). Higher level intra-family relationships within the Cyprinidae, one of the largest and most complex vertebrate families in existence, have also received attention (Shunping et al 2008;Wang et al 2012).…”

“…This is especially relevant because, as reflected in the genera of both aforementioned species, the name Barbus, formally attributed to many African species, now has been restricted to a lineage of European species. The many African species that were formally part of this genus have been dispersed into different genera or left in a basket of unclassified 'Barbus' following the findings of Berrebi et al (1996Berrebi et al ( , 2014, Machordom & Doadrio (2001), Tsigenopoulos et al (2002Tsigenopoulos et al ( , 2010 and Yang et al (2015). The taxonomic recommendations made by Yang et al (2015) with regard to a lineage of tetraploid species from southern Africa, including species of the genus Pseudobarbus, was to place all species other than Pseudobarbus in a temporary genus 'Pseudobarbus'.…”

Abstract. The identity of Barbus capensis, as described by Andrew Smith (1841), is reviewed following a careful examination of the lectotype in the Natural History Museum, London. Evidence shows clearly that it represents a specimen of the Berg-Breede River whitefish or 'witvis' and not the species known as the Clanwilliam yellowfish, to which it was attributed until recently. The original illustration of the species is shown to be a composite of these two different species. A replacement name for the Clanwilliam yellowfish is drawn from the earliest described synonym, Labeobarbus seeberi (Gilchrist & Thompson, 1913). Following widespread recognition that the genus Barbus Daudin, 1805 does not occur in subSaharan Africa, the generic status of the Berg-Breede River whitefish (witvis) and other tetraploid cyprinines of southern Africa is reviewed, taking genetic and morphological characters into account. Five distinct lineages, each representing a genus, are recognized, including the genera Pseudobarbus Smith, 1841 and Cheilobarbus Smith, 1841, and three new genera described herein: Amatolacypris gen. nov., Sedercypris gen. nov. and Namaquacypris gen. nov.

“…Recently, however, Yang et al (2015) have proposed the resurrection of the oldest available genus name, Enteromius, for these African "small barbs, " and some authors have adopted that proposal (e.g., Decru et al, 2015). While Yang et al 's (2015) study represents progress toward resolution of tribal-level relationships among the more the 1300 species of the subfamily Cyprininae, their sampling of African members of the newly erected tribe Smiliogastrini (viz., all African small barbs and their allies, and most members of the Asian genus Puntius and allies) was limited.…”

“…And, as noted by Schmidt and Bart (2015), the current lack of resolution of relationships within the tribe renders the adoption of the name Enteromius for the numerous small-bodied African barbs problematical. If classification and nomenclature are to reflect phylogenetic relationships and monophyly is to prevail then, based on the trees presented by Yang et al (2015), certain putatively monophyletic genera such as Barboides and Clypeobarbus will either need to be sunk into Enteromius, or various Enteromius species will need to be reassigned to Barboides and Clypeobarbus. In the absence of a well-supported tree that includes considerably more African taxa, such action appears premature and likely to cause considerable nomenclatural instability.…”

A new species of smiliogastrin cyprinid is described from tributaries of the middle Congo River in the Democratic Republic of Congo. Restriction of the genus name, Barbus, to certain large-bodied, (polyploid) barbins, and current uncertainty regarding phylogenetic relationships among the numerous small-bodied African (diploid) barbs, renders generic assignment for the new species problematical. Pending the results of ongoing systematic analyses, and to reduce short-term nomenclatural instability, the new species is described here as a species of "Barbus." 3 "Barbus" validus, new species, is readily distinguished from all other small-bodied African barbs by the combined possession of scales in midlateral series that are not enlarged relative to those along the impinging rows above and below; well-developed barbels, with the maxillary pair extending beyond the level of mideye, and the mandibular pair reaching the level of midopercle; the presence of numerous conical tubercles over the snout, cheek, and dorsum of head; a small circular occipital fontanel located medially at the parietal suture; well-developed gill rakers, with 8 or 9 on the hypo-and ceratobranchial elements of the first arch; a last unbranched dorsal-fin ray that is weakly ossified and lacking serrations along the posterior border; and a dorsal fin that is creamy white proximally and with the distal half to two thirds darkly pigmented.
