Selected References on the Channel Catfish,

Ictalui-us punctatus —

'

In compiling this list of referencesI have not attempted to Include all litera-ture on the channel catfish, but only thosereferences that contribute to the knowledgeof the natural history of this species

,

particularly its reproduction. Faunallists and statements of local or regionaldistribution were deliberately omitted.Unintentionally, important references mayhave been omitted, and I will be gratefulto any reader who indicates such omission.

T am deeply grateful to Dr. John VanOosten, U. S. Fish and Wildlife Service,Ann Arbor, Michigan, for making the cardfile of his and the Fish and Wildlife Ser-vice libraries available to me for thiscompilation.
