Luciobarbus albanicus is a ray-finned fish species in the family Cyprinidae. It is often referred to as "Albanian Barbel" in a literal translation of its original scientific name Barbus albanicus. However, this is misleading, as it was thus called on the assumption that it occurs in Albania, which it apparently does not. Rather, it is endemic to western Greece. It is here placed in Luciobarbus following the IUCN, but that genus is very closely related to the other typical barbels and perhaps better considered a mere subgenus of Barbus. In addition, L. albanicus has like its close relative the Ebro Barbel and the slightly more distantly related Red-tailed Barbel also been placed in Messinobarbus. But even if that genus is valid, it is probably incorrect to do so.
