Harro, can you send the full reference for this paper? I need to add it to a
manuscript I'm sending off in the next day or two.

It seems to be a Macquaria based on genetics, data aren't consistant yet, but
it is most closely related to Macquarie and golden perch (the results flip
flop between each species depending upon the analysis and gene). Either way,
it is a neat little fish!
