Eponymy: Allan Riverstone McCulloch (1885–1925) was a noted Australian ichthyologist. [...] Isaac (Ike) Morgan Rowland was the author’s late grandfather, who he describes as “…a great admirer and angler of Australian native inland fishes, in particular Murray cod.” (Ref. 128868), visit book page.
Issue
Needs a taxonomic reference.
Environment: milieu / climate zone / depth range / distribution range
Ecology
Freshwater; benthopelagic. Temperate
Oceania: Australia.
Size / Weight / Age
Maturity: Lm ?  range ? - ? cm
Max length : 66.0 cm SL male/unsexed; (Ref. 44894)
Inhabits pristine sections of clear, flowing, rocky streams strewn with logs and other woody debris. Life history and general biology are similar to that of the Murray cod; however, it has a slightly slower growth rate. Spawns in spring when water temperatures exceed 16°C (Ref. 44894).

Estimates based on models
Phylogenetic diversity index (Ref.

50 = 0.5625 [Uniqueness, from 0.5 = low to 2.0 = high].
Bayesian length-weight: a=0.01047 (0.00400 - 0.02738), b=3.01 (2.79 - 3.23), in cm total length, based on LWR estimates for this (Sub)family-body shape (Ref.

Trophic level (Ref.
69278): 3.9 ±0.6 se; based on size and trophs of closest relatives
Generation time: 6.5 ( na - na) years. Estimated as median ln(3)/K based on 1
growth studies.
Resilience (Ref.
120179): Low, minimum population doubling time 4.5 - 14 years (Preliminary K or Fecundity.).
Fishing Vulnerability (Ref.
