The white Amur bream (Parabramis pekinensis) is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish belonging to the family Xenocyprididae, the East Asian minnows or sharpbellies[1] This is the only species in the monospecific genus Parabramis.[2] It is native to eastern Asia, where found from the Amur River basin in Russia south to Ningbo and Shanghai in China.[4] It is an important food fish,[4] and has been introduced to regions outside its native range.[3]
The species was originally described as Abramis pekinensis by the Russian physician, zoologist and ichthyologist Stepan Ivanovich Basilewsky with its type locality given as the rivers flowing into Tschili Bay.[2] In 1865 Pieter Bleeker proposed the monotypic genus Parabramis for this taxon.[1] The genus name is derived from the Greek word para, meaning "the side of ", and the Old French word breme, a type of freshwater fish.[5]
