Cyprinella is a genus of freshwater ray-finned fish in the family Leuciscidae, the shiners, daces and minnows. They are known as the satinfin shiners. They are native to North America, and some are among the most common freshwater fish species on the eastern side of the continent. Conversely, several Cyprinella species with small distributions are threatened and the Maravillas Creek subspecies of the red shiner (Cyprinella lutrensis blairi) is extinct.
The largest species reach around 19 cm (7.5 in) in total length. Breeding males often develop bright coloration. Fish of the genus produce audible sounds during courtship and conflict.
