Danio kyathit

Danio kyathit, also called ocelot danio, is a small, schooling species of fish in the family Danionidae.

It is endemic to the upper reaches of Irrawaddy River near Myitkyina in northern Myanmar.

[1][2] Described in 1998, it is closely related to the better-known zebrafish or zebra danio, D. rerio.

A smallish danio with a maximum length of 6 centimetres (2.4 in), the females are thicker and less streamlined in the body than males.

Danio kyathit had once two recognised colour morphs, a striped form known as the orange-finned danio but has now been described as Danio quagga, a spotted form known by the common name ocelot danio, which may be confused with the leopard danio.
