Sundadanio is a genus of cyprinid fishes from freshwater habitats, typically peat swamps and blackwater streams, in Borneo and Sumatra (as well as nearby smaller islands) in southeast Asia.[1] At up to 2.3 cm (0.91 in) in standard length they are very small,[2] but still larger than their close relatives Paedocypris.[3] Species of the two genera are often found together.[1]

There are currently eight recognized species in this genus:[2]
