Aphredoderus sayanus (Pirate Perch) is a widespread species whose life history is the subject of only a few studies. I recorded life-history data from a small sample of Pirate Perch collected from an intermittent stream in midcontinental highlands of Arkansas (Batesville, Independence County) on 30 June 2004. Our small sample suggests variation in prey consumption rates between sexes during the breeding season and in allocation to reproduction among females. Our survey confirmed that Pirate Perch from Arkansas have similar insectivorous diets to those reported from other regions.
