Tachysurus sinensis, the yellow catfish or Korean bullhead, is a species of bagrid catfish found in eastern Asia from Siberia to China, Korea, Vietnam, and Laos, where it can be found in lakes and river channels. It can reach a maximum length of 36.1 cm (14.2 in), weighing 3 kg (6 lb 10 oz), though it is much more commonly found to a length of 8 cm (3.1 in). It is a minor component of commercial fisheries.[3]
