摘　　要：Phylogenetic relationships among Bornean sucker fishes(Teleostei:Balitoridae:Gastromyzontinae)were investigated by comparing cytochrome b gene sequences from eight species.The results were in general agreement with previous morphology-based studies.It was found that the genera Gastromyzon and Neogastromyzon are both monophyletic and that the Chinese homalopterid Crossostoma lacustre(Homalopterinae)is not related to the Bornean species.This molecular-level study of cytochrome b gene variation in Bornean gastromyzontins will undoubtedly help to shed light on the molecular systematics of this unique freshwater fish.
