New Koonac Species

Well, sorry to not reply Ryan, thanks for you comment mate.I have been busy down south collecting crayfish if that is an excuse. This trip I fished a different area and seem to have at least one of a different koonac species. Pictures on the net identify it as cherax preissi, whilst the species I have already is by elimination cherax glaber. However, the distribution of the specimens conflicts with some old fisheries data. It looks like I may have to go offline for information ....Shocking tho that seems to me.
Tomorrow I will visit the Perth museum and solve the identity problem once and for all, then I will post some pics. I also got some interesting marron (from farms under license of course) These ones I am told are stock from different river systems and they appear to have different claws and some green tints in the joints. I also caught a pair of marron with extremely large tails in an extremely unlikely place whilst fishing for yabbies. Sadly I had to release them straight away because of our fishieries laws with marron here and I was so worried about having marron instead of yabbies that I didn't pause long enough to take a photo. Probably they had both just lost claws recently and so they looked tail heavy but I will be back in that spot come marron season as the shape of them and the place they are in intrigues me.
