They were once widespread and abundant throughout their range; however the species has suffered a serious decline in abundance and distribution, and are now considered one of the most threatened vertebrate species in Australia. Murray Hardyhead is rare in NSW and only a few isolated populations occur in Victoria and South Australia. All populations are threatened by declining water levels, habitat loss and impacts of pest fish (including Gambusia, Redfin and Carp). It is listed as a ‘critically endangered’ species in NSW under the Fisheries Management Act 1994. https://www.dpi.nsw.gov.au/fishing/species-protection/what-current/critically-endangered-species/murray-hardyhead. This indicative distribution was derived from survey records and expert opinion. { "type": "Polygon", "coordinates": [ [ [ 140.97593645142425, -36.36306202523604 ], [ 140.97593645142425, -32.07714517736312 ], [ 145.63364604612067, -32.07714517736312 ], [ 145.63364604612067, -36.36306202523604 ], [ 140.97593645142425, -36.36306202523604 ] ] ]} 140.97593645142425 145.63364604612067 -36.36306202523604 -32.07714517736312 ECOLOGY FISHERIES FRESHWATER HABITAT THREATENED SPECIES Show on SEED Web Map documentDigital SEED Web Map Murray Hardyhead profile documentDigital PDF Murray Hardyhead kmz documentDigital KMZ ArcGIS REST service for Murray Hardyhead documentDigital ArcGIS REST SERVICE WMS for Murray Hardyhead documentDigital WMS WFS for Murray Hardyhead documentDigital WFS
