The European or river perch (Lake Constance: Kretzer, Switzerland: Egli) is a predatory fish native to most parts of Europe and northern Asia. The taxon was widely introduced to other continental areas where it can cause substantial damage to local fish populations. Typical features are the two dorsal fins (anterior spinous dorsalis with stiff lepidotrichia, posterior soft dorsalis) as well as the yellow to red pelvic, anal and caudal fins.
