Comments: | Also introduced from Argentina in 1973. Referred to as Cynolebias nigripinnis in Dec 2004. This pearlfish has been listed as a nonestablished species known from open waters in California (Courtenay et al. 1986, 1991; Williams and Jennings 1991). That listing likely is based on its introduction. Ref: |
