It would be cool to cite the actual research paper! Stan 03:23, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * I think it is just a press story based on a conference paper so far rather than a journal paper, but I will check back & see if there's anything that can be cited - there may be something on the researchers' websites that can be linked to. seglea 07:24, 28 Jul 2004 (UTC)
 * found it now - it is a full-blown article after all. Most of what we have on this page is really about the Plainfin Midshipman and there might be a case for shifting it to a species page, but I don't think that's urgent.  seglea 02:05, 29 Jul 2004 (UTC)

the midshipman fish

sex vs gender
Male midshipman fish have 2 reproductive strategies, hence they are described as different types. I've change the second paragraph to say "[t]here are three genders of midshipman fish". Should this be gender, sex or something else?--Oharar (talk) 09:36, 11 April 2014 (UTC)

Proposed addition
Hello,

I am considering adding a new section to the Midshipman fish page, specifically a “brain-behavior relationship” section to look at how the differences in the structure and function of the nervous system translate to behavioral differences amongst the three morphs: Type I, Type II, and females. Specifically, I was going to focus on morph-specific vocal behavior. The section would include 1) how the different growth paths when it comes to neurons and muscles for the Type I males and Type II males and females determine morph-specific vocal behavior and 2) how different levels of various hormones determine morph-specific vocal behavior.

I would love to hear your thoughts/suggestions on these additions? Thanks! IsabellaSciComm (talk) 18:07, 2 December 2017 (UTC)


 * It's fascinating, an extraordinary story, well told and well cited, but basically it deserves its own article, Vocalization in midshipman fish (or something like that, could mention reproduction in the title), in which case we'd just leave a short summary here, with a link at the top of that vocalization section. If you move it to a new article, remember to put a short summary at the top, and a References section at the end. Chiswick Chap (talk) 16:23, 3 December 2017 (UTC)
 * I've boldly gone and split it out. It needs more of a summary in its lead section, and a matching summary here in this article. Chiswick Chap (talk) 19:43, 7 December 2017 (UTC)
