Description:

Biometric relationships between bone dimensions and body size are presented for topmouth gudgeon Pseudorasbora parva and sunbleak Leucaspius delineatus, two invasive fish species in the UK. This study also provides a tool for identification of these species using key bones. Such information facilitates the assessment of the potential role of these invaders in the diet of piscivorous fauna.
