Snail Bullhead (Ameiurus brunneus) belong to Ictaluridae, a family of catfish native to North America. These fish range in size from 97-294 mm and are considered omnivores. It is often assumed that Snail Bullhead consume small fish, invertebrates, and plant material, yet few studies have described their diet in detail. The goal of this descriptive study is to compile literature and data on the Snail Bullhead to better understand the diet of this understudied species. Plant material was found in most Snail Bullhead stomachs while Viviparidae snails, crayfish, Chironominae, Tanypodinae and unidentified fish were the most common prey items.1 Comparisons between the diet of Snail Bullhead and other bullheads or piscivorous species may provide better insight into Snail Bullhead feeding behavior. For example, both Brown Bullhead (Ameiurus nebulosus) and Flathead Catfish (Pylodictis olivaris) are opportunistic generalists that feed on available prey and have been known to consume similar items to the Snail Bullhead. Additionally, these fish and other piscivorous species exhibit ontogenetic and seasonal diet shifts which indicates that Snail Bullhead may also display these feeding behaviors. However, to date there has not been research on ontogeny or seasonality with regards to the Snail Bullhead. Future studies may benefit from sampling different size classes during dry and wet seasons and running stable isotope analyses to better understand energy flows and trophic interactions. This study also examines the use of similar species to approximate the diet of an understudied species. Additionally, Snail Bullhead are listed as imperiled in Virginia and vulnerable in Alabama and South Carolina and a report on their diet may help with future management decisions in the area.
