A killifish is any of various small, mainly oviparous (egg-laying) cyprinodont fish (order ''[[Cyprinodontiformes]]'', family '''[[Cyprinodontidae]]'''). The name killifish is derived from the Dutch word "kilde", meaning small creek, puddle. The two primary families for Killis are '''[[Nothobranchiidae]]''' and '''[[Aplocheilidae]]'''. '''[[Rivulidae]]''' is a smaller group of fish which are also classed as Killifish or Pearlfish.

Most Killies are small fish, {{cm|2.5|5}}. The largest is under {{cm|15}}, but only a few species are this large. Although Killifish is sometimes used as an English equivalent to '''[[Cyprinodontidae]]''', some species belonging to this family have their own common names, such as the Pupfish and the [[Mummichog]].
