Percocypris
Percocypris is a genus of cyprinid freshwater fishes found in large rivers and Fuxian Lake in the highlands of southern China and northern mainland southeast Asia. They are predators that mainly feed on smaller fish. They can reach up to around in standard length and more than in weight.
Percocypris all are rare and threatened. As of 2013, the Chinese Red List only recognizes one species in this genus and treats it as vulnerable. P. tchangi of the Red River has not been confirmed since its original description in 1936. Primary threats are overfishing and habitat loss, especially from dams and pollution. P. pingi is farmed and captive-bred individuals are released back into the wild by several institutions in an attempt of countering its threatened status.
