TitleOn the track of the Mary River cod / Amos Mapleston.Personal AuthorMapleston, AmosCorporate AuthorDepartment of Environment and HeritageSummaryAbstract: The Mary River Cod or Mary Cod (Maccullochella peelii mariensis) is one of the most endangered freshwater fish in Queensland. The Mary River cod was once distributed extensively throughout south-east Queensland, but is now found naturally only in parts of the Mary River system. Numbers are known to be very low, and therefore, this species is now totally protected. This species has suffered population declines as a result of habitat losses over most of its range. Mary River cod have been stocked in small numbers in some dams where it is hoped they will breed.ImprintBrisbane : Department of Environment, 2003.Collation1 v.FormatBook
