The teleost family Sciaenidae, collectively known as the croakers and drums because of
their propensity for making sound, includes roughly 70 genera and 270 species worldwide …

Our understanding of habitat selection by reef fish larvae has changed dramatically in the
last 10 years. Fish larvae have long been considered passive particles at the mercy of ocean …

This chapter, written from the perspective of four authors who have been studying fish
bioacoustics for over 120 years (cumulative!), examines the major issues of the field. Each …

Morphological, physiological, behavioral, and developmental studies of the
mechanosensory lateral line system are used to define sources of morphological and …

The evolutionary history of hearing is a rich and fascinating pageant. The inner ear and the
closely related mechanosensory lateral line show a tremendous diversity among living and …

During the day, we used settlement-stage reef-fish larvae from light-traps to study in situ
orientation, 100 to 1000 m from coral reefs in water 10 to 40 m deep, at Lizard Island, Great …

The auditory evoked potential technique has been used for the past 30 years to evaluate the
hearing ability of fish. The resulting audiograms are typically presented in terms of sound …

The paper lists basic data on the role of sounds in fish behavior. The involvement of acoustic
signaling in the control of reproductive, territorial, agonistic, aggressive, social, and feeding …

Members of the teleost family Sciaenidae show significant variation in inner ear and swim
bladder morphology as well as in the relationship between the swim bladder and the inner …

Morphology of the postotic laterosensory canal was surveyed across loricarioid and
outgroup catfishes in order to resolve conflicting statements regarding homology and …
