几个世纪以来，人们一直在观察、研究、捕捞、交易和食用鳗鲡。因此，社会发展了各种文化现象，包括烹饪、民俗、艺术、文学、传说。然而，近年来，地球仪上的一些鳗鱼种群数量急剧下降，一些物种现在被认为是濒危物种，并且越来越需要在科学、管理和保护界之间分享知识，以保护这些神秘的鱼类，扭转下降趋势，并在其他地方防止其发生。为促进这一知识交流，2012年5月在爱丁堡国际会议中心举行的第六届世界渔业大会上举行了一次以鳗鳗为重点的大会会议。这份《淡水鱼类生态学》特刊收录了大会上发表的一些论文，每一篇论文都集中在一个特定的科学问题上。虽然需要对鳗鱼进行科学研究以了解和管理鳗鱼资源，并且本书的大部分内容都与此相关，但在考虑如何确保这一迷人的鱼类家族拥有可持续的未来时，也有必要考虑鳗鱼的文化和社会方面。
Anguillid eels have been observed, studied, fished, traded and consumed by humans for centuries. As a consequence, societies have developed various cultural phenomena regarding cuisine, folklore, art, literature, legend. In recent years, however, some populations of eels have been in sharp decline across the globe, some species are now considered to be endangered, and there is an ever increasing need to share knowledge amongst the scientific, management and conservation community to protect these enigmatic fish, to reverse declines and elsewhere to prevent their occurrence. To facilitate this knowledge exchange, a congress session focussed on anguillid eels was held at the sixth World Fisheries Congress in May 2012 at the Edinburgh International Conference Centre. This special issue of Ecology of Freshwater Fish contains a number of the papers presented at the congress session, each focussed on a particular scientific problem. While the scientific study of eels is required to understand and manage eel resources, and to which end the majority of this volume is related, it is also necessary to take the cultural and social aspects of eels into account when considering how to ensure that this fascinating family of fishes has a sustainable future.
