Cyprinoidei is a suborder, or superfamily, of primarily pelagic, freshwater ray-finned fishes within the larger order Cypriniformes. Many fishes in this group, which are readily found in aquaculture due to their hardiness, include the carps, danionins, and minnows.
Cyprinoidei was formerly a monotypic grouping only containing a single large family, the Cyprinidae, but this has now been divided into a number of many sister taxa.
