Paracapoeta is a genus of fish in the family Cyprinidae found in Mesopotamia, Cilicia and the Levant, Western Asia. This genus is closely related to Luciobarbus and was formerly the Mesopotamian clade of Capoeta before being split off in 2022.[1] The generic name alludes to παρά (pará) meaning "near" and Capoeta.
