The Mary River cod (Maccullochella mariensis) is a species of temperate perch native to the coastal Mary River system of southern Queensland, Australia.[2] Mary River cod are one of Australia's most endangered freshwater fishes[3] and are notable for being the most northerly of the four Maccullochella cods found or once found in coastal river systems of eastern Australia.

The endangered status of the fish was one of the reasons that the Traveston Crossing Dam was not able to be built.[4]

The species is very territorial, staying in the same spot for 98% of the time, leaving only to feed and breed.[4]
