n. calidae Cyprinodon nevadensis is a species of pupfish in the genus Cyprinodon.

[3] The species is also known as the Amargosa pupfish,[3] but that name may also refer to one subspecies, Cyprinodon nevadensis amargosae.

[4] All six subspecies are or were endemic to very isolated locations in the Mojave Desert of California and Nevada.
