Researchers have just published a study demonstrating that the flying gurnard (Dactylopterus volitans) emits sounds while simultaneously performing movements to communicate—a discovery that enriches our knowledge about the "symphony" of the ocean. Since the 1970s, scientists had suspected that this species produced sounds, but only now has definitive confirmation and detailed characterization been achieved.
