(2012), hlm. 69-70."The striking coloration of many species of Puntius has also led to their popularity as freshwater-aquarium fishes; many species are traded internationally as ornamentals. As the genus has hitherto been understood , species of Puntius range widely in size, from about 20 to 500 mm SL; possess 18-47 lateral-line scales; a complete, incomplete or interrupted lateral line; none, one or two pairs of barbels; a weak or strong, serrated or smooth last unbranched dorsal-fin ray; and a body coloration composed of a spot or blotch at the base of the caudal fin, one or more blotches or bars on the body, one or more lateral stripes, or none at all."
