Seller's Description:
New. Pristine New Book. 800 Pages. Catfish species occur worldwide and are of increasing interest to anglers, biologists, aquaculturists, aquarists, and conservationists. This book explores the incredible diversity of catfish in size, life history, and ecology. Catfish provide important sport fisheries and many chapters provide new insights on sampling, population dynamics, and management of these sport fishes. Numerous non-game species of catfish have not been well-studied and this book supplies new information on several of these species, including some that are threatened by habitat degradation and other factors. Several chapters provide insights into the population dynamics and potential management strategies for nonnative catfish populations, some of which have devastated native fish fauna. Other chapters document the large variation in fish movements and habitat use in river systems both within and among catfish species. The last chapter summarizes the state of knowledge of catfish science, and identifies areas for future study. This book will be a valuable reference for anyone interested in catfish, especially those charged with studying, managing, or conserving these important species.
