Migratory behaviour and habitat use by American eels Anguilla rostrata as revealed by otolith microchemistry
TLDR
Four distinct but interrelated behavioural groups were identified by the temporal changes in Sr:Ca ratios in their otoliths: (1) entrance into freshwater as an elver, (2) coastal or estuarine residence for 1y r or more before entering freshwater, and, after enteringfresh, (3) continuous freshwater res- idence until the silver eel stage.

Distribution of albacore (Thunnus alalunga) in the Indian Ocean and its relation to environmental factors
The distribution pattern of albacore, Thunnus alalunga, in the Indian Ocean was analyzed based on catch data from the Taiwanese tuna longline fishery during the period 1979‐85. The Taiwanese tuna…

Phenotypic plasticity of habitat use by three temperate eel species, Anguilla anguilla, A. japonica and A. rostrata
TLDR
Diversity of habitat use appears to be a common strategy of temperate eel species, and, as a life his- tory tactic, is under environmental control.

Plio-Pleistocene sea level and temperature fluctuations in the northwestern Pacific promoted speciation in the globally-distributed flathead mullet Mugil cephalus
TLDR
This study successfully identified three cryptic species in M. cephalus inhabiting the NW Pacific, using a combination of microsatellites and mitochondrial genetic markers, indicating that speciation has been achieved.

Migratory patterns and contribution of stocking to the population of European eel in Lithuanian waters as indicated by otolith Sr:Ca ratios.
TLDR
Otolith Sr:Ca ratios were examined to evaluate the contribution of the stocked eel Anguilla anguilla elvers, which have been stocked in Lithuanian waters and mixed with naturally recruited eels for several decades, to the native eel population, and do not support the hypothesis that the eel fishery in the Curonian Lagoon depends mostly on stocking.

Disparities in habitat use and migratory behavior between tropical eel Anguilla marmorata and temperate eel A. japonica in four Taiwanese rivers
TLDR
A. marmorata is more easily threatened by both fishing pressure and continuous habitat degradation than A. japonica, and this disparity in migratory behaviors and habitat use between species may reflect interspecific competition and adaptive radiation.

Occurrence of the semi-catadromous European eel Anguilla anguilla in the Baltic Sea
TLDR
The evidence indicates that European eels in the Baltic Sea do not necessarily migrate into freshwater streams during the growth phase.
