Comments:
Polyodon spathula is the latest fish introduced to Austria. Up to now its distribution is confined to carp ponds. There is no knowledge to date of the occurrence of this species in free water bodies. Although stocking of wild water bodies with foreign species is forbidden by local fisheries acts, there is no effective control. So one can be sure, that sooner or later P. spathula is set free somewhere (Ref. 13686).

Etymology: Polyodon:Greek, polys = a lot of + Greek, odous = teeth (Ref. 45335); spathula:Polyodon, many toothed, perhaps due to the numerous gill rakers because adult paddlefish lack teeth, although young fish has many small teeth, and spathula meaning spatula, due to its elongated snout (Ref. 79012).
