I recorded ten minutes and followed Rodney rountrees expert 101 on how to collect... That was when I thought it was a mutton grouper. Then a friend pointed out it was a squirrelfish. Has anyone checked them for speech?
Squirrelfish are a classic group for study of sound production. My old major prof Howard Winn and students did some of the classic work, and it has recently been taken up by the Parmentier establishment. Be careful about using common names when asking an international audience about a fish. I can come up with at least 10 names of the oyster toadfish.
well, answering my own question can't be that bad:
