Catfish have existed for millions of years, with fossil evidence dating back to the Late Cretaceous period, around 100 million years ago. However, the formal scientific description of catfish began in the 18th century, with early classifications made by naturalists like Carl Linnaeus in 1758. The discovery of catfish as a distinct group of fish has evolved over time with ongoing research and exploration.
