==Taxonomy== ''Rutilus'' was first proposed as a genus in 1820 by the French [[polymath]] [[Constantine Samuel Rafinesque]] with ''Cyprinus rutilus'' designated as the [[type species]] but also the type species by absolute [[tautonymy]].<ref name = "Cof family"/> ''Cyprinus rutilus'' was first formally [[Species description|described]] in the [[10th edition of Systema Naturae|10th edition of ''Systema Naturae'']] by [[Carl Linnaeus]] with "European lakes" given as the [[Type locality (biology)|type locality]].<ref name = "Cof genus">{{Cof genus|genus=Rutilus|access-date=16 April 2025}}</ref> In a [[phylogeography|phylogeographic]] study, Levin et al. (2017) argue that the [[Ponto-Caspian]] taxa including ''R. caspicus'', ''R. heckelii'' and ''R. stoumboudae'' could represent a single widespread species whose range extends to [[Siberia]], to be named ''[[Rutilus lacustris]]'', whereas ''R. kutum'' is included in ''R. frisii''. <ref name=Levin2017>Levin, B.A., Simonov, E.P., Ermakov, O.A., Levina, M.A., Interesova, E.A., Kovalchuk, O.M., Malinina, Y.A., Mamilov, N.S., Mustafayev, N.J., Pilin, D.V., Pozdeev, I.V., Prostakov, N.I., Roubenyan, H.R., Titov, S.V. & Vekhov, D.A.
