Ameiuridae, also known as the Ictaluridae or bullhead catfish, is a family of catfishes found primarily in North America. These fish are typically characterized by their barbels, or whisker-like sensory organs, near the mouth and the armor plates on their body instead of scales. Sizes range significantly within this family, but most are small to medium-sized freshwater fish. They are typically bottom-dwelling fish and are known for their ability to adapt to various environments, including those with low oxygen levels.
