This report presents a brief overview of current information regarding alien fish species: their distribution and abundance, and impacts; sampling techniques and monitoring protocols; indicators; control; and monitoring and research activities throughout Australia. It highlights a number of specific recommendations that have been identified by many scientific authorities regarding the management of pest fish in Australia. We also present a number of key issues and recommendations that have emerged during the scope of this review that are directly relevant to monitoring and reporting and the National Natural Resources Management Monitoring and Evaluation Framework.
This report was commissioned by the National Land and Water Resources Audit and prepared by the Invasive Animals Cooperative Research Centre (IA CRC), under project 9.D.5 ?Fish scoping study?.
