Clarias magur is a species of freshwater airbreathing catfish from India and Bangladesh.
It was recognized as species distinct from Clarias batrachus in 2008.
[2] Clarias magur is eaten in Bangladesh and West Bengal as magur curry (Bengali: মাগুর মাছের ঝোল), and is considered good during illness, particularly for body weakness.
It reportedly is fed to children to develop body strength.
[citation needed] In Karnataka, C. magur is called murgodu (ಮುರ್ಗೋಡು).
