Abstract

The authors present indirect evidence of successful paddlefish (Polyodon spathula)
reproduction in 1989 and 1991 in the lower Black River, Wisconsin, about 5 km
upstream of the confluence with the upper Mississippi River. This is the first
indication of successful reproduction by paddlefish at the northern end of its range in
the central United States.
