Important questions to progress science and sustainable management of anguillid eels (2021, background): “…(Bonhommeau et al., 2010) but, because of the difficulties of studying the behaviour of individual leptocephali in the ocean, little is known about how well they swim and the relationship between larval transport and recruitment is not fully understood (Miller, 2009; Miller & Tsukamoto, 2017).”
Evaluation of the larval distribution and migration of the Japanese eel in the western North Pacific (2011, background): “Extensive fisheries surveys using small plankton nets for larval fishes or other types of gear with larger mesh sizes in this region were not included in this study, because small plankton nets B1 m are not effective for sampling leptocephali due to net avoidance, which can also occur with large pla”
