| Abstract | The entry of alien predatory fish in Indonesian waters has a negative impact on local ecosystems in Indonesia, foreign predatory fish can spread disease, become main predators and can cause imbalance in the food chain. From this study, we report the presence of alien predatory fish of the type Cichlasoma urophthalmus (Günther 1862) or Mayan Cichlid from tropical waters of North America caught in Kedung Ombo Reservoir, Grobokan Regency, Central Java. The species identification method uses a morphological observation approach based on Miller et al. (2005) and Nico et al. (2007). This finding is the first for the type of Cichlasoma urophthalmus recorded in the Kedung Ombo Reservoir. A description of the morphology of the caught species Cichlasoma urophthalmus is included in the discussion.Keywords: Alien Predatory Fish; Kedung Ombo Reservoir; Mayan Cichlid; Cichlasoma urophthalmus |
