Selected References on the Channel Catfish, 

 Ictalui-us punctatus — ' 



In compiling this list of references 

 I have not attempted to Include all litera- 

 ture on the channel catfish, but only those 

 references that contribute to the knowledge 

 of the natural history of this species , 

 particularly its reproduction. Faunal 

 lists and statements of local or regional 

 distribution were deliberately omitted. 

 Unintentionally, important references may 

 have been omitted, and I will be grateful 

 to any reader who indicates such omission. 



T am deeply grateful to Dr. John Van 

 Oosten, U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service, 

 Ann Arbor, Michigan, for making the card 

 file of his and the Fish and Wildlife Ser- 

 vice libraries available to me for this 

 compilation.
