AI Article Synopsis
- The sounds were captured in coastal ponds along the French Atlantic coast and are made up of a series of regularly spaced pulses lasting 7.8 milliseconds each.
- These sounds primarily have frequencies below 350 Hz.
- The patterns and characteristics of the sounds closely resemble those of the American eel, leading researchers to credit them to the European eel.
Article Abstract
The sounds were recorded in coastal ponds off the French Atlantic coast. They are characterized by continuous series of regularly spaced sounds, each sound being composed of one to four pulses of 7.8-ms duration. The main frequencies of these sounds are under 350 Hz. Due to the special characteristics of these sounds, their temporal patterning, their coastal pond provenance and their close similarity to sounds made by the American eel (Anguilla rostrata), we attribute them to the European eel (Anguilla anguilla).
