The southern conger (Conger verreauxi) is a conger of the family Congridae, found in the eastern Indian Ocean and south-western Pacific Ocean, including southern Australia and New Zealand, at depths down to 100 m in broken rocky reef areas. Length is up to 2 m and weight may be up to 5 kg.

The fish is named in honor of Kaup’s friend Julius "Jules" Verreaux (1807-1873), who was a botanist, an ornithologist and a trader in natural history specimens, and who collected the type specimen in Australia.[2]
