Global distribution of actively soniferous fish species found in a 2022 review. The relative size and colors of the circles represents a both the number of documented actively soniferous fish species, and b the percentage of documented actively soniferous species out of the total number of species and the percentage of documented actively soniferous species out of the number of species examined for sound production, respectively, native to each fishing area designated by the Food and Agricultural Organization of the United Nations as reported in rfishbase (Boettiger et al. 2012). Areas with no documented actively soniferous fish species are marked with an “X” symbol. Species may be listed in multiple fishing areas.Source: Looby, Audrey et al., 2022.
