The dwarf inanga (Galaxias gracilis) is a galaxiid of the genus Galaxias, found in the North Island of New Zealand.
It is a landlocked galaxiid present in only eleven lakes on the west coast of the North Island within 50 km of Dargaville, and in Lake Ototoa on the South Kaipara Head, where it was introduced in 1986. It can reach a maximum length of around 6.2 cm.
