Ok, maybe the mention of Bass and Gar was off. (LMB, SMB, and virtually all temperate Gars being Natives in US terms).
But not all the members of the other groups I mentioned are exclusively native.
You've got European and Asian Sturgeon, Perch, Trout, and Salmon. Roach and Barbel are also known European Fish. Mahseer are purely non-native in origin. Majority of the cyprinids that aren't Chub, Suckers, and Minnows tend to come from Asia. These days, more chinese cold water imports are coming in, so you could check those out as well. Asian Eels are showing up a little more.
There's also a wealth of Chinese and Japanese Gobies. Japanese Styphodon Gobies are actually very interesting, what with all the color diversity they have.
Again, a little more research sheds more light. So don't just write-off my mentions of trout and perch as being natives only.
I would've mentioned Chinese Paddlefish on the Paddlefish part, but that one's a different story altogether.
