🐟Common carp
Carpa-comum (nome científico: Cyprinus carpio) é um peixe cipriniforme da família dos ciprinídeos (Cyprinidae), de coloração cinza prateado. Está difundida por águas eutróficas em lagos e grandes rios na Europa e Ásia. As populações selvagens nativas são consideradas vulneráveis à extinção pela União Internacional para a Conservação da Natureza (UICN), mas a espécie também foi domesticada e introduzida (veja aquacultura) em ambientes em todo o mundo, e muitas vezes é considerada espécie invasora destrutiva. Está na trigésima primeira posição da lista 100 das espécies exóticas invasoras mais daninhas do mundo e está na Lista de espécies invasoras no Brasil.
