Usage notes

Danio was described in 1822 by Francis Hamilton. In 1916, the genus was split, with the smaller species being moved into the genus Brachydanio. In 1991, the two genera were recombined, and most larger species formerly within Danio have now been reclassified into Devario. Brachydanio is now a junior synonym of Danio.
