- The European eel (Anguilla anguilla, Linnaeus), its Lifecycle, Evolution and Reproduction: A Literature Review (2005, background): “Eel fisheries in Europe cover an area of 90,000 km2 with approximately 25,000 people generating income from eel fisheries and aquaculture (Dekker 1998, 2003a, 2004).”
- Oceanic changes in the Sargasso Sea and declines in recruitment of the European eel (2007, background): “The declining recruitment of anguillid eels documented on both sides of the Atlantic Ocean in recent decades (Haro et al., 2000; Casselman, 2003; Dekker et al., 2003) has been hypothesized by Castonguay et al.”
- Adaptive phenotypic plasticity of eel diadromy (2007, background): “Eel recruitment in freshwater habitats is crashing worldwide, raising well-founded concern about possible extinction of these legendary fishes (Dekker et al. 2003, Stone 2003).”

- Seasonal variation in the migratory history of the Japanese eel Anguilla japonica in Mikawa Bay, Japan (2005, background): “Such questions are of critical importance in understanding the ecological aspects of the growth phase and sexual maturation of temperate anguillid eels, which are experiencing drastic population declines in some areas, thus causing serious concerns among scientists (see Dekker et al. 2003).”
