	LUNGFISH
		The Lungfish is a representative of an ancient group of fishes which have survived many million years of great geological changes.
		The Lungfish may use its gills for breathing underwater; however, should the water become foul, it can use a lung-like sac, rising to "gulp" air in a swift rolling motion at the surface.This species is a native of the Mary and Burnett Rivers (South Africa).
		The Lungfish spawns from August to October; the eggs resemble small transparent grapes and are frequently found attached to floating stands of water-hyacinth plants.

	Lungfish - MSN Encarta
		The name lungfish is derived from the specialized lung that is the fishes' primary organ for respiration.
		Lungfishes are brown and mottled in color and have eel-like bodies, usually from 61 cm to 1 m (24 in to 4 ft) in length, although some species are 2 m (6 ft) long.
		The Australian lungfish is classified as Neoceratodus forsteri, and the South American lungfish as Lepidosiren paradoxa.

	Lungfish - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Lungfish are best-known for retaining characteristics primitive within the Osteichthyes, including the ability to breathe air, and structures primitive within Sarcopterygii, including the presence of lobed fins with a well-developed internal skeleton.
		Changes in physiology allow the lungfish to slow its metabolism to greater than 1/60th of the normal metabolic rate, and protein waste is converted from ammonia to less-toxic urea (normally, lungfish excrete nitrogenous waste as ammonia directly into the water).
		While Devonian lungfish retain enough ossification of the endocranium to determine relationships, post-Devonian lungfish are represented entirely by skull roofs and teeth, as the rest of the skull is cartilaginous.

	Australian Lungfish
		Lungfish show considerable reluctance to seek out new spawning grounds and if one that has been used in the past becomes unsuitable due to exposure caused by river regulation (for example), the fish simply re-absorb the eggs and milt and return again the following year.
		Lungfish are easily identified by their long heavy body, large heavy overlapping scales, small eyes and sturdy pectoral and pelvic fins resembling flippers.
		Lungfish eggs stuck to aquatic vegetation have been collected after spawning and each egg is surrounded by a gelatenous coating similar to that of a frog.

		The lungfish is a cartilaginous fish with small eyes and teeth in the form of crushing plates.As the name suggests, lungfish have the ability to supplement their respiration using a modified swim bladder (lung) to inhale air at times of poor water quality or increased activity.
		Lungfish vary in colour from dull brown to olive green dorsally, whilst the ventral surface varies from cream to a vivid orange colour.
		Lungfish generally inhabit still or slow-flowing streams or deep pools and can be found in clear or turbid waters.

	Australian Lungfish (Neoceratodus forsteri)
		The Australian Lungfish is restricted to south-eastern Queensland, with its natural distribution being the Mary, Burnett and possibly Brisbane and North Pine Rivers.
		The Australian Lungfish is also listed on Appendix II of the Convention on International Trade in Endangered Species of Wild Fauna and Flora (CITES) and strict conditions apply to its export under the EPBC Act.
		Listing of the Australian Lungfish as a nationally threatened species under the EPBC Act means that any action that is likely to have a significant impact on the species will need to be referred to the Commonwealth Environment Minister for a decision as to whether assessment and approval is required.

	Pharyngula: Help the Australian lungfish
		Downstream of the dam, reduced flow will lead to the drying out of established breeding areas, and because lungfish are very loyal to their old breeding sites - they often simply cease to breed if their old sites are lost - this is also likely to have a severe long-term impact on the population.
		In my opinion the lungfish habitat and spawning grounds should be world heritage listed and the whole Mary valley should be the subject of much more research before any decision to interfere with it further.
		A dam (or more accurately a swamp with receding mudflats) is not going to help the lungfish, or the Mary River Turtle, or the Mary River Cod, or any of the other species reliant on the Mary River.

	Lungfish : The Unanimous Hour - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		After a mellow period of post-rock, Lungfish reintroduced elements of dissonance and vocal fire, reviving the group's punk energy for 1999's The Unanimous Hour.
		There is an unfortunate lapse as The Unanimous Hour finishes off with some solid but predictable Mogwai-esque instrumentalism ("Sands of Time," "Return to the Caves") and a heavy-handed, bizarre vocal experiment ("Metatron.") These songs might not qualify as filler, but they fail to match up with the superior earlier material.
		This minor letdown in no way diminishes the accomplishments of The Unanimous Hour, perhaps the most impressive Lungfish effort.
