The Kimberley spangled perch (Leiotherapon macrolepsis), also known as the large-scale grunter, is a species of freshwater ray-finned fish from the family Terapontidae. It is endemic to the Kimberley region of Western Australia. It is one of the most common species in one of the tributaries of the Prince Regent River. [1]
Silver perch are not a "true" perch of the genus Perca, but are instead a member of Terapontidae or 'grunter' family. They are the largest member of the Terapontidae, capable of growing in excess of 60 cm (24 in) and close to 8 kg (18 lb), but today wild river specimens are typically 30–40 cm (12–16 in) and 1.0–1.5 kg (2.2–3.3 lb).
Not yet declared are the catch limits for yellow perch that go into effect May 1. Currently, the daily limit is 30 west of Huron and east of Fairport Harbor but only 10 in between.
Kuhlia rupestris, the rock flagtail, jungle perch, mountain trout, buffalo bream, dusky-finned bulleye, rockmountain bass or spotted flagtail, is a species of ray-finned fish, a flagtail, from the family Kuhliidae. It is a catadromous species which is native to the Indo-Pacific and northern Australia.
Estuary perch, as with many other native fish of south-eastern Australia, are very long-lived. Longevity is a survival strategy to ensure that most adults participate in at least one exceptional spawning and recruitment event, which are often linked to unusually wet La Niña years and may only occur every one or two decades.
Dogwood Creek is 212 kilometres (132 mi) long and drops from an elevation 361 metres to 260 metres (101 metres in total). [2]Fish found in the creek include golden perch, Mary River cod, Murray cod, silver perch, spangled perch and yabbies.
In the Murray River, wild male golden perch generally reach sexual maturity at 3 years of age and 32.5 cm in length, and wild female golden perch at 4 years of age and 40 cm in length. [6] The latter fact is a concern given that minimum size limits for the species are currently less than 40 cm, at 30 cm.
