Comments: Historically, the anadromous Acipenser sinensis was native to China, SW Korea, and western Kyushu,<br />

Japan. According to the IUCN, it is currently restricted to "the mid-lower section of the Yangtze River". Iwasaki (2006)<br />

lists it as introduced into Japan, resulting in a conflict of native and introduced populations in western Japan.<br />
