Hi Zed,
Good point mate, but what makes things even harder for our cousince from accross the drain, not only do we have different regional names for the same species, Aussies will often refer to a particular species by its regional slang name.
An example is here,
The Australian Luderick. Girella tricuspidata

Also variously known as blackfish, black bream and even ****** in some places.
Mate Perils link will help you put a face to a name, so to speak, but if you're not sure what we are on about, please ask.
