Book Description
Manitoba's ninety-three species of fish give the province the third most diverse fish population in Canada. The provinceĆs variety of geological features, with its major lakes, rivers, tributaries, and watersheds, is due in large part to its history as the basin for Glacial Lake Agassiz. This, combined with its access to the waters of Hudson Bay and large American river systems, has provided habitat for a wide diversity of freshwater fish. Species from lampreys to goldeye, catfish to perch, bigmouth bass to slimy sculpin swim in waters from arctic rivers in the north to Red River tributaries and down to the Mississippi in the south.Freshwater Fishes of Manitoba is a comprehensive, user-friendly guide. Each species is accurately depicted in detailed colour photographs and accompanying map, with descriptions of physical characteristics, spawning and feeding habits, distribution, habitat, ecological role, and economic importance. The guide also includes an extensive glossary, keys to identifying the families, species, and subspecies, and information on documentation and preservation of specimens. Freshwater Fishes of Manitoba is not only the definitive guide to these fishes of Manitoba, it is also accessible and reliable for a range of users from general fishers to professional fish biologists.

Book Description
The Fisheries Research Board is proud to present this volume, a tribute to the cooperation between the government agency that initiated and supported the work and the research organization that carried it out. It is the hope of the authors that this text will perform a useful service by highlighting the lack of information on many aspects of the biology of many Canadian fish species. Particularly glaring is our ignorance of the basic life history of many common species.
