Percina is a genus of small bony fishes of the family Percidae, mostly from North America. Like similar Etheostomatinae they are called "darters". More specifically the genus as a whole is known as roughbelly darters, while certain species of "Percina" with a pattern of vertical bars on the flanks are called logperches.
