This series fills immense gaps in knowledge of issues related to
early life development of fishes in the Ohio basin. Volume I
includes familes Acipenseridae to Esocidae, Volume II includes the
Catostomidae, while Volume III addresses the developmental and
morphological issues of catfish and madtoms. This volume describes
the characteristics of the Ictaluridae family, and provides a
detailed pictorial guide. Subtopics within each species description
includes range, distribution, occurrence, spawning, eggs,
development, ecology of early life phases, and more. This book
serves as both a ready guide to help identify individual larval
fish, and as a reference for environmental managers concerned with
the overall health of the ecosystem that they are monitoring.
