As a result of the distribution study in the Fishbase, Pseudorasbora parva (Temminck and Schlegel, 1842) was found in 43 countries (Froese and Pauly, 2022). In spite of the fact that China is classified as the source of this fish in Fishbase, vast swaths of western China have been invaded by this species and have caused great harm (Jia et al., 2019). In accordance with this, China was categorized as both a native and an invasive region (dark yellow range), whilst the Korean peninsula, Japan, Russia, and Mongolia were categorized as native regions (light yellow ranges) and others as invasive regions (red ranges). There have been reports of both native (blue solid circles) and invasive (green solid circles) length-weight relationships (LWRs) for this species in 12 different countries.
