Petruichthys is a genus of stone loaches native to eastern Asia.

There are currently two recognized species in this genus, though one is not as yet assignable to this genus with complete certainty:

Petruichthys brevis (Boulenger, 1893)

Petruichthys salmonides (B. L. Chaudhuri, 1911) (species inquirenda and incertae sedis, probably in this genus)
