Atyidae is a family of shrimp, present in all tropical and most temperate waters of the world. Adults of this family are almost always confined to fresh water Fresh water or freshwater is any naturally occurring liquid or frozen water containing low concentrations of dissolved salt (chemistry), salts and other total dissolved solids. The term excludes seawater and brackish water, but it does include .... This is the only family in the superfamily Atyoidea.

Caridina
''Caridina'' is a genus of freshwater atyid shrimp. They are widely found in tropical or subtropical water in Asia, Oceania and Africa. They are filter-feeders and omnivorous scavengers. They range from 0.9 to 9.8 mm ('' C. cantonensis'') to 1.2–7.4 mm ('' C. serrata'') in carapace length. Taxonomy and species There is evidence for hybridization between sympatric taxa, requiring care when interpreting molecular phylogenetic analyses that do not use a large number of specimens. As of March 2022, the Integrated Taxonomic Information System lists the genus ''Caridina'' as having 340 species. These include the following species: *'' Caridina ablepsia'' Guo, Jiang & Zhang, 1992 *'' Caridina acuta'' Liang, Chen & W.-X. Li, 2005 *'' Caridina acutirostris'' Schenkel, 1902 *'' Caridina africana'' Kingsley, 1883 *''Caridina alba'' J. Li & S.
