Sinocyclocheilus tingi is a species of freshwater fish in the family Cyprinidae. It is only known from Fuxian Lake in Yunnan.[1][2] It grows to 18.3 cm (7.2 in) SL.[2]
Sinocyclocheilus tingi has been impacted by habitat degradation, overfishing, and introduced species, and its numbers have strongly declined.[1]
