The Sacramento perch (''Archoplites interruptus'') is a sunfish (family Centrarchidae) native to the Sacramento–San Joaquin, Pajaro, and Salinas River areas in California, but widely introduced throughout the western United States. The Sacramento perch's native habitat is in sluggish, vegetated waters of sloughs and lakes. It can reach a maximum overall length of and a maximum weight of , and it has been reported to live as long as six years. ''A. interruptus'' is currently the only species of genus ''Archoplites'', but Girard had originally assigned it to ''Centrarchus.'' The generic name, ''Archoplites,'' derives from the Greek άρχος (ruler) and οπλίτης (bearing a shield). Although called the Sacramento perch, ''A. interruptus'' is not a perch strictly speaking; the perches are members of the genus ''Perca'' in family Percidae. ==References== * * *ITIS: (''Archoplites'' ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Sacramento perch」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
