A review of scientific literature published by workers from the Eurasian mainland, suggested that introductions of zander could lead to changes in the native fish fauna. However, such changes frequently coincide with changes in the habitat which may themselves have been partly responsible for the developments noted. It is suggested that a controlled study of the zander might enable a precise determination of the zander's ecological impact.
