Klapanunggal blind cave barb (Barbodes klapanunggalensis), known locally as wader buta, is a species of barb from the Klapanunggal karst area of Bogor Regency, West Java. It is a cavefish, being endemic to water bodies within the caves of the region; typical of cavefish (though not of Barbodes), B. klapanunggalensis is eyeless and unpigmented, and it can be distinguished from its congeners by multiple other features, including enlarged paired fins. Its small population number may be threatened by human development, such as through mining for limestone, though it is currently not under any known threat due to its isolation.
