Danio quagga, a new species of striped danio from western Myanmar (Teleostei: Cyprinidae).Danio quagga, new species, is described from the Chindwin River drainage near Kalaymyo and Tamu, western Myanmar. It is similar to D. kyathit from the Ayeyarwaddy and upper Chindwin River, but differs in having four to five contrasting dark stripes along the side, instead of rows of spots along the side, and shorter barbels. Danio quagga is similar in colour pattern to the zebrafish, D. rerio, but differs in having four instead of three distinct dark bands above the pectoral fin, and in absence of dark bands on the caudal fin lobes.
