Common card · No. 224290

Asian carp is a term that groups together several species of carp native to Eurasia, commonly referring to the four East Asian species silver carp, bighead carp, grass carp (or white amur) and black carp (or black amur), which were introduced to North America during the 1970s and are now regarded as invasive in the United States. The four species, now also known commercially as Copi in the United States, are staple food fish in their native China, where they are collectively known as qing cao lian yong (青草鲢鳙) or "Four Great Domestic Fish" (四大家鱼) and are farmed extensively.
