Freshwater eels (Anguilla anguilla L.) were experimented on in order to measure ventilatory flow rate (by means of a direct method of collecting expired water), and simultaneously, to record sub-opercular pressure changes and opercular displacements (operculogram). Significant correlations (p less than 0.01) were found between the ventilatory flow rate (V) and various characteristics of operculiogram records. The relationships which are significant in each fish experimented on are; V = a(f.lo) + b; V = a(f.Ao) % b and V = a(f.Ao2) + b(f: ventilatory frequency: Ao and lo: mean amplitude and result of integration of opercular tracings). Considering the technical difficulties in measuring the ventilation flow rate of the eel, the easier operculographic recording methods lead to a correct estimation of relative changes in ventilatory flow rate, by using the refined relationship: V = a(Ao1.63).
为了测量通气流量（通过直接收集呼出的水的方法），同时记录鳃盖下压力变化和鳃盖位移（鳃盖运动图），对欧洲鳗鲡（Anguilla anguilla L.）进行了实验。在通气流量（V）与鳃盖运动图记录的各种特征之间发现了显著相关性（p小于0.01）。在每条实验鱼中显著的关系为：V = a(f.lo) + b；V = a(f.Ao) % b和V = a(f.Ao2) + b（f：通气频率；Ao和lo：鳃盖描记图的平均振幅和积分结果）。考虑到测量鳗鱼通气流量的技术困难，通过使用精确的关系：V = a(Ao1.63)，更容易的鳃盖运动图记录方法可以正确估计通气流量的相对变化。
