Cyprinoidei

Cyprinoidei is a suborder, or superfamily, of mostly freshwater ray-finned fishes within the large order Cypriniformes. Cyprinoidei was formerly a monotypic grouping only containing a single large family, the Cyprinidae but this has now been divided into a number of different families.^[1]
