Murray cod and crays in Barmah on the road to recovery
16 April 2014 - Vic DEPI

Monitoring of the Murray River around the Barmah-Millewa Forest region in the past two spawning seasons has found larval Murray cod and Murray spiny crayfish in areas affected by the 2011  blackwater event.

ARI Fish Ecologist Zeb Tonkin said: "Monitoring of the fish conducted by the Department of Environment and Primary Industries' (DEPI) Arthur Rylah Institute (ARI) in 2012 and 2013 found significant numbers of larvae of the threatened Murray cod (Maccullochella peelii peelii)and threatened Murray spiny crayfish (Euastacus armatus)."
