Vaillantella Euepiptera
''Vaillantella euepiptera'' is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish, a loach, belonging to the family Vaillantellidae, the longfin loaches. This species is found in Southeast Asia. Taxonomy ''Vaillantella euepiptera'' was first formally described as ''Nemacheilus euepipterus'' in 1902 by the French zoologist Léon Vaillant with its type locality given as Pontianak on the Kapuas River on Borneo. In 1905 Henry Weed Fowler proposed the monospecific genus '' Vaillantella'' for ''N. euepipterus'', designating it as the type species of the new genus. Since then two other species have been described as belonging to the genus ''Vaillantella'', '' V. massi'' in 1912 and '' V. cinnamomea'' in 1994. The genus ''Vaillantella'' is the only genus in the monotypic family Vaillantellidae, the longfin loaches, within the suborder Cobitoidei in the order Cypriniformes. Etymology ''Vailantella euepiptera'' is the type species of the genus ''Vaillantella'' a name which honours Léon Vaillant, t ...

Loaches
Loaches are ray-finned fishes of the suborder Cobitoidei. They are freshwater, benthic (bottom-dwelling) fish found in rivers and creeks throughout Eurasia and northern Africa. Loaches are among the most diverse groups of fish; the 1249 known species of Cobitoidei comprise about 107 genera divided among 9 families. Etymology The name Cobitoidei comes from the type genus, ''Cobitis'', described by Carl Linnaeus in his landmark 1758 10th edition of ''Systema Naturae''. However, its origin predates modern zoological nomenclature and derives from a term used by Aristotle to refer to "small fishes that bury... like the gudgeon." Description Loaches display a wide variety of morphologies, making the group difficult to characterize as a whole using external traits. They range in adult length from the 23 mm (1 in) miniature eel-loach, ''Pangio longimanus'', to the 50 cm (20 in) imperial flower loach, ''Leptobotia elongata'', with the latter weighing up to 3&nb ...

Vaillantella Maassi
''Vaillantella maassi'', the forktail loach, is a species of loach in the family Vaillantellidae, a monogeneric family with two other species, ''Vaillantella cinnamomea'' and ''Vaillantella euepiptera''. They are from Southeast Asia. Description The genus ''Vaillantella'' is distinguished from all other loaches by its very long dorsal fin which has 59–73 rays and by its deeply forked caudal fin with a very elongated upper lobe. This species is distinguished from its congeners by the higher number of rays in the anal fin. It has an overall brown colour, Females are likely to be thicker bodied than males. Distribution ''Vaillantella maassi'' ranges from Indonesia in Kalimantan and Sumatra and the Malay Peninsula as far north as the Tapi River basin and into southeastern Thailand. Habitat and ecology ''Vaillantella maassi'' is found in the shallows at the margins of forest streams, often in streams originating in peat which contain "black water" although it can also occur in cle ...
