Astyanax is a genus of freshwater fish in the family Characidae of the order Characiformes. Some of these fish, like many of their relatives, are kept as aquarium pets and known collectively as tetras. With around 150 described species and new ones being described yearly, this genus is among the largest of the entire order; Hyphessobrycon also has more than 145 species and which one is larger at any one time depends on whether more species have been recently described in one or the other. The blind and colorless cave tetra of Mexico is a famous member of the genus, but its taxonomic position is disputed: Some recognize it as part of the Mexican tetra (A. mexicanus) and this is supported by phylogenetic evidence, but others recognize the cave form as a separate species, A. jordani.

  • Astyanax – rodzaj ryb z rodziny kąsaczowatych (Characidae) obejmujący ponad 100 słodkowodnych gatunków opisanych naukowo. Jest to, obok Hyphessobrycon, najliczniejszy w gatunki rodzaj z rzędu kąsaczokształtnych. Ryby te są szeroko rozprzestrzenione w wodach słodkich obu Ameryk – od południowych Stanów Zjednoczonych po północną Argentynę. Oprócz form rzecznych, żyjących w wodach powierzchniowych, są wśród nich zasiedlające podwodne jaskinie ślepe ryby – stanowiące obiekt badań naukowych. Niektóre gatunki są wykorzystywane jako ryby akwariowe. (pl)
