The Danube delta gudgeon (Romanogobio antipai) was a
cyprinid fish endemic to the lower Danube in Romania and the Ukraine. It was last recorded in the 1960s, with many studies conducted in its home range, all failing to find the species.[2]
Named in memory of Romanian zoologist Grigore Antipa (1867-1944), who collected the type specimen.[3]
