<em>Acrossocheilus macrophthalmus</em> is a freshwater fish belonging to the family Cyprinidae, within the large and diverse carp and minnow order. The specific epithet "macrophthalmus" refers to notably large eyes, a feature that may reflect adaptation to low-light or turbid aquatic conditions. Members of the genus <em>Acrossocheilus</em> are distributed across river systems of East and Southeast Asia, typically inhabiting fast-flowing, well-oxygenated mountain and hill streams with rocky or gravelly substrates. These cyprinids are generally benthic or sub-benthic in habit, feeding on algae, periphyton, and small invertebrates scraped from rock surfaces. No maximum length or weight data are currently on record for <em>Acrossocheilus macrophthalmus</em>. Details of habitat associations and the precise geographic range of this species remain limited in the ichthyological literature.
