Fish belonging to the family Centrarchidae is native to North America, and thus the species found in Norway (pumpkinseed Lepomis gibbosus (Linnaeus, 1758)) is a recent introduction (Sterud and Jørgensen 2006). The species has a very limited distribution, and is expected to have a limited ecological impact ( Hesthagen and Sandlund 2007). However, there is basically no available knowledge about its ecology and potential interaction with other parts of the local food webs.
