Abstract
The movements of juvenile burbot Lota lota were monitored continuously with an overall efficiency of 92.5%. The results show that passive integrated t ransponder (PIT) systems (or variations of them) are highly valuable for be havioural studies of small nocturnal fish species at the laboratory or meso cosm scale.
