Description
The common carp (Cyprinus carpio) is one of the most widely-introduced species of fish in the world. Unfortunately, their ability to out-compete native fish makes them an invasive pest in most areas. The common carp is nevertheless an important commercial product, especially in its native Eastern Europe range. A number of traditional dishes in Europe revolve around this fish.
