Although clownfish sounds were recorded as early as 1930, the mechanism of sound production has remained obscure. Yet, clownfish are prolific "singers" that produce a wide variety of sounds, described as "chirps" and "pops" in both reproductive and agonistic behavioral contexts. Here, we describe the sonic mechanism of the clownfish Amphiprion clarkii.
尽管早在1930年就记录到了小丑鱼的声音，但发声机制一直不清楚。然而，小丑鱼是多产的“歌唱家”，能发出各种各样的声音，在繁殖和争斗行为环境中被描述为“啁啾声”和“砰砰声”。在这里，我们描述了克氏双锯鱼（Amphiprion clarkii）的发声机制。
