Colored carp all descended from the wild carp which probably originated in Persia. Wild carp are called "Koi" in Japanese. Later on the tem "koi" was applid to all carpk both the wild and the colored. The Japanese now have a special word for wild carp which is "Magoi."  Colored and inbred Magoi are called Koi. Those Koi which have been bred for color are called "Nishikigoi." Many Japanese use the word "Koi" to indicate wild carp. However, the terms "Koi" has taken on a secondary meaning in most of the world. "Koi," to most of the English speaking world, means the colored carp which the Japanese refer to as the "Nishikigoi."

More information can be obtained from the book called KOI VARIETIES - Japanese colored carp by Herbert R.A.
