Grass Carp Ctenopharyngodon idella was introduced to the southern United States in the 1960s to control aquatic macrophytes in aquaculture ponds. The accidental release of Grass Carp from some research facilities and aquaculture farms at the start of the introduction, followed by the broad promotion of stocking triploid and diploid fish, helped to facilitate the expansion of the invasive range of the species in North America. Grass Carp have recently been observed to reproduce in Lake Erie. The species has been an important food fish in China for centuries, and Chinese scientists and government agencies have accumulated a great deal of experience, knowledge, and data on Grass Carp. We review Chinese literature and provide a synthesis of the biology and ecology of Grass Carp in China, including the native geographic distribution as well as the factors that determine its reproductive success, growth, and foraging behavior. We also review the impacts of the introduction (or invasion) of Grass Carp on receiving systems and the effects of dams and pollution on Grass Carp. This review fills knowledge gaps in the Western scientific literature about Grass Carp. It provides scientific information that could be used to guide future research and management on ways to control the invasion and propagation of this species.
