- Source: List of danionin species
In the last few decades, many danionin species have been moved into different genera, in some cases repeatedly; similarly, some species have been synonymised with other species and even in some cases later unsynonymised, all of which has caused confusion. With a large number of recent discoveries, particularly in Myanmar in recent years, confusion has been caused. As a result, a separate page has been created which lists all danionin species and also lists defunct species which have since been synonymised or renamed. Individual danionin species are listed below in order of genus:
Species categorised by genus
= Danio
=The species remaining in the genus Danio comprise most of the danionins familiar to aquarists. They have two pairs of long barbels and are generally characterised by horizontal stripes (with the exception of the Panther Danio, Glowlight Danio and Black Barred Danio which have vertical bars. In size they range from 4 cm/ 1.75 in) to 15 cm/ 6 in).

= "Miniature" danionins
=The following genera of tiny fish are thought to be danionins closely related to Danio and Esomus, but too little is known about them to confirm this.
Danionella
Danionella comprises tiny, recently discovered fish.
Danionella mirifica
Danionella translucida
"Several other as yet unnamed Danionella species have very recently been discovered".
Microrasbora
The genus name Microrasbora means "small Rasbora", but these fish appear to be more closely related to the Danio species than Rasbora. Speculation exists that Microrasbora erythromicron may be transferred to the genus Danio, but this now seems unlikely.
Microrasbora erythromicron
Microrasbora gatesi
Microrasbora kubotai
Microrasbora nana
Microrasbora rubescens
Paedocypris
Paedocypris contains the smallest known fish in the world.
Paedocypris micromegethes
Paedocypris progenetica
Sundadanio
A genus with only one species, the genus Sundadanio was created after Rasbora axelrodi species was transferred to this genus. S. axelrodi resembles a tiny Rasbora.
Sundadanio axelrodi
Danionins renamed or wrongly identified
These genera that previously described certain danionins are no longer valid:
Allodanio
Brachydanio
Danioides
Daniops
Eustira
Parabarilius
Paradanio
Rambaibarnia
All Devario species were formerly in the genus Danio. In addition, Devario acuticephala, Devario shanensis, and Devario sondhii were also regarded at one time as being in the former genus Brachydanio.
Certain fish were formerly described within danionin genera and subsequently moved to their correct genus. Where such fish were moved to the genus: Achielognargus, Acanthorhodeus, Barilius, Opsarius, Oxygaster, Paralaubuca, Rhodeus, Salmostoma, and Securicula, such fish are not now deemed to be danionins.
