Title: Sound production in the clownfish Amphiprion clarkii. Author: Parmentier E, Colleye O, Fine ML, Frédérich B, Vandewalle P, Herrel A. Journal: Science; 2007 May 18; 316(5827):1006. PubMed ID: 17510359. Abstract: Although clownfish sounds were recorded as early as 1930, the mechanism of sound production has remained obscure.

Here, we describe the sonic mechanism of the clownfish Amphiprion clarkii.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
