Directional asymmetry in gonad length indicates moray eels (Teleostei, Anguilliformes, Muraenidae) are “right-gonadal” [PDF]
Scientific Reports, 2023 Directional asymmetry indicates a unidirectional deviation from perfect bilateral symmetry, which was rarely examined in the inner organs of the teleost (Teleostei) compared to external traits.

The Ground Effect in Anguilliform Swimming [PDF]
Biomimetics, 2020 Some anguilliform swimmers such as eels and lampreys swim near the ground, which has been hypothesized to have hydrodynamic benefits. To investigate whether swimming near ground has hydrodynamics benefits, two large-eddy simulations of a self-propelled anguilliform swimmer are carried out—one swimming far away from the ground (free swimming) and the ...

Development of a non-lethal stomach content analysis method for freshwater eels: An empirical evaluation of the tube method for Anguilla marmorata. [PDF]
J Fish BiolAbstract Understanding the feeding habits of predatory fish is essential for unravelling food web structures and implementing conservation strategies in riverine ecosystems. However, conventional lethal stomach content analysis methods are not necessarily appropriate for long‐term dietary studies, particularly for threatened species, as they require ...
