Claea dabryi is a species of stone loach endemic to the Jinshajiang river basin in China. Commonly known as 戴氏南鰍,[1] which translates as Dai's southern loach.
It is now a
monotypic genus,[3] as the other three former members (sonlaensis, niulanjiangensis and trilineatus) are now in Schistura.[2] The former subspecies C. d. microphthalma is now Triplophysa microphthalma.[4]
The genus name is an allusion to Claea, an Oread mountain nymph from Greek mythology.[4]
