Abstract

Introduction: Oxbow lakes and their biota are important in the ecology of the Missouri River basin. The only completed study of these lakes has been Welker’s (1965) study of the fish of five oxbows. Descriptions of oxbow fauna and their ecology are generally lacking in the literature. This study is designed to partially fill that void.
