Marron
Cherax tenuimanus, the marron, is a large freshwater crayfish found in the south-west corner of Australia.
Recreational fishing for marron is tightly controlled, with a limited season, permits required and minimum sizes.
Marron is considered a luxury product and is the subject of a developing aquaculture industry in Western Australia and in other Australian states. Total Australian production of farmed marron was 30 tons in 1996.
