Notes:
Maturing sub-adults of two species of anguillid eels (a female Anguilla bicolor bicolor and a male Anguilla marmorata) were collected for the first time at Réunion Island, western Indian Ocean. Both were silver eels, i.e. maturing eels at the onset of their spawning migration, and characterized by advanced sexual maturation that has been only observed in Anguilla dieffenbachii from New Zealand.
