}}

The marbled rockcod (Notothenia rossii) is a species of notothen native to the Southern Ocean, where it can be found at depths from {{convert|5|to|350|m|ft|abbr=on}}. This species can reach a length of {{convert|92|cm|in|abbr=on}}, though most are only around {{convert|50|cm|in|abbr=on}}. The greatest recorded weight for this species is {{convert|10|kg|lb|abbr=on}}. This is a commercially important species.[1]

During the 1960s and 1970s, it was heavily fished by Soviet fishers, with catches exceeding 100,000 tonnes in some seasons; it almost disappeared from around South Georgia Island, and by 1980, was depleted throughout the Southern Ocean.[2]
