Bedotia
''Bedotia'' is a genus of the family Bedotiidae of fishes endemic to Madagascar.
==Taxonomy==
This genus is monophyletic. Little is known regarding phylogenetic interrelationships of the numerous populations of ''Bedotia'' of eastern Madagascar, and the genus is in need of systematic revision. One author synonymized ''B. longianalis'' and ''B. tricolor'' with ''B. geayi'' with no justification. It is apparent that several species of ''Bedotia'' exist, although many of these are new and await description, whereas the taxonomic status of many nominal species remains uncertain.〔
A 2004 study supported three major, more or less geographically distinct, clades of ''Bedotia'', one comprising species with distributions ranging from mid- to southeastern Madagascar (''B. madagascariensis'', ''B. geayi'', and ''B. tricolor'', plus four undescribed species), another including species restricted to eastern drainages north of the Masoala Peninsula (''B. marojejy'', plus four undescribed species), and a third comprising species with distributions extending from the Masoala Peninsula southward to the Ivoloina River (''B. longianalis'' and ''B. masoala'', plus three undescribed species).〔 These three clades of ''Bedotia'' are not readily separated based on coloration or pigmentation pattern.
