摘要
Conservation efforts for endangered fish species often include captive breeding programs that aim to re-establish viable populations in the wild. This study presents the first confirmed record of natural recruitment, to sub-adult, in a population of the endangered Australian freshwater fish, trout cod (Maccullochella macquariensis) derived from the stocking of captive-bred fingerlings. This represents a significant step in the conservation efforts for this species.
