Logperches are a group of ray-finned fish in the genus Percina of the family Percidae.
The fish inhabit clear, gravelly streams and lakes.
Due to their small size, the fish are not normally harvested for food.
Habitat alteration and inappropriate land use practices are the most common population stressors.
The logperch is commonly found as a baby and around 6 to 9 cm (2.4 to 3.5 in) in length, it has features like small black dots on the surface, elongated front fins, and a long skinny body, reaching a maximum size of about 18 cm (7.1 in) and a maximum age of about 3 years.
