| | Murray Cod - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Murray Cod continue a pattern present in Murray-Darling native fish genera of speciation in lowland and specialist upland species, with Murray Cod being the primarily lowland species and Trout Cod being the specialist upland species. |
 | | Murray Cod are widespread throughout the basin, particularly in lowland areas, but extend well into upland areas; to ~700m elevation in the southern half of the basin and to ~1000m in the northern half of the basin. |
 | | Unfortunately, Murray Cod have died out of many of their upland habitats due to a combination of overfishing, siltation, dams and weirs blocking migration, and possibly, in some cases, competition between juvenile Murray Cod and introduced Trout species. |
