As a food resource in both Eastern and Western countries, the
eel is an important fish. Over the years, remarkable progress has
been achieved in understanding the mysterious life cycle of eels
that has fascinated scientists since the age of Aristotle. The
spawning area of the Japanese eel was discovered and the migratory
route of its larvae was elucidated. With the development of
techniques for artificial induction of gonadal maturation, it
became possible to obtain hatched larvae. Larval rearing to the
leptocephalus stage, one of the most difficult tasks involved in
eel culture, finally was achieved. By presenting these important
breakthroughs, Eel Biology will be of great help in the development
of effective management strategies for maintaining stable eel
populations. With contributions by leading experts, this book is a
valuable source for researchers as well as industry technicians in
the fields of aquatic biology, aquaculture, and fisheries.
