The Fishes of Wilson’s Creek National Battlefield, Missouri, 2003 Prepared in cooperation with the National Park Service U.S.

An inventory of fishes of Wilson’s Creek National Battlefield was conducted at eight sites on three streams, two springs, a pond, and within a cave. Fish were sampled using conventional electrofishing equipment during July 2003. Approximately 325 fish were collected and identified from five of the eight sampling sites. A total of 30 species of fish was collected from the eight sampling sites. The number of species collected at the sampling sites ranged from 0 to 23. Many of the “most commonly” collected fish species are typical of Ozark streams.
