Anguila eléctrica es una de las veinticuatro especies de este atlas. No es un catálogo: trata evolución, anatomía, conducta, cultura, iconos, conservación y área como un solo sistema.
Las puntuaciones comparan velocidad, inteligencia, área, resiliencia, impacto cultural y rol ecológico. Son juicios editoriales relativos, no un ranking de laboratorio.
Siete capítulos profundizan: orígenes, cuerpo y sentidos, vida y conducta, cultura, iconos, presión de conservación y el área que se comparte con la gente.
Introducción profunda
Inmersión: Anguila eléctrica
Anguila eléctrica no es un animal de postal. Es un conjunto de poblaciones, subespecies y reglas humanas dentro de la familia peces de este atlas.
Diversidad, cuerpos, cultura y áreas — más una lente de esta región lingüística.
Diversidad dentro del tipo
Las guías de campo comprimen muchos linajes en la palabra Anguila eléctrica. Subespecies, rutas y líneas cautivas no comparten un solo destino.
Este atlas elige un título de Wikipedia como imagen heroica y deja a la vista el resto del grado para que una población recuperada no lave a una prima En peligro crítico.
Life in the landscape
An elongated knifefish with a long anal fin and three electric organs of stacked electrocytes. True eels they are not; the battery is the point of the body.
Night hunting of fish and invertebrates. High-voltage volleys are metabolically expensive; weak pulses map the murk more cheaply.
Cultura y significado
Cine, ley, heráldica, zoológicos y relato local encontraron a Anguila eléctrica. Esas imágenes mueven dinero; no son un censo de campo.
El capítulo de cultura fecha carteles y leyes para que una película de 1975 o un logotipo de 1961 no finjan ser la Lista Roja de los años 2020.
Conservation and money
Electrophorus electricus is Least Concern on a basin scale; local drought, dams and the pet trade are the finer risks.
Tourism, conflict payments, quotas and captive loans are dated economic bands in the market chapter -- not live prices and not a best-species prize.

Biología a fondo: Anguila eléctrica
La biología de Anguila eléctrica es una pila de estructura, energía, sentidos y límites. Los cuatro apartados usan los mismos títulos del atlas para comparar sin un marco de mejor especie.
Anatomía, sentidos, conducta y límites — más el lenguaje de campo de esta región.
Structure
An elongated knifefish with a long anal fin and three electric organs of stacked electrocytes. True eels they are not; the battery is the point of the body.
Load paths and tissues (not metals) are expanded in the anatomy chapter.
Energy and foraging
Night hunting of fish and invertebrates. High-voltage volleys are metabolically expensive; weak pulses map the murk more cheaply.
The how-it-works diagrams reduce that budget to a six-node loop.
Senses and control
Active electrolocation plus the same organ used as a club. Eyes are secondary in tannin water.
Control here means the animal steering itself -- not a vehicle ECU.
Limits
Air-breathing helps a stagnant pool; a dam and a drought do not care about voltage. LC is a range statement.
Resilience scores encode those limits relative to the other 23 types.
Four other atlas types, six terms, three threads and three local notes -- a map out of the Anguila eléctrica page without leaving the 24-id taxonomy.

Términos clave
Electrocyte
Disc-like cell stacked in series -- the battery plate of the electric organ.
Electrophorus voltai
2019 species -- the high-voltage record holder, named for Volta.
Humboldt 1800
Alexander von Humboldt account of horses driven into eels -- a travel-science set piece.
Sachs and Hunter organs
Anatomical names for the main and accessory electric organs.
EOL
Electric organ discharge -- pulse trains for hunt, defence and (weaker) electrolocation.
Gymnotiform
Neotropical knifefishes; the eel is a knifefish that grew a battery, not a true eel.
Habitat and movement
Where the Anguila eléctrica breeds and feeds is the first constraint. Single lakes, islands and forests appear again in the history timeline.
Range scores in this atlas mark how widely that movement runs -- albatross and blue whale high, koi and panda low -- not a quality ranking.
Research and law
Named projects (Project Tiger, ACAP, ICCAT, Amboseli) are the English-language bureaucracy of the type.
Listings and downlists are dated events in the timeline, not eternal essences.
Culture and price
Film, auction and logo years are filed under culture and market so they cannot masquerade as demography.
The icons chapter keeps eight real Wikipedia titles so a later language pack can attach the same faces.

No. It is a gymnotiform knifefish. The body plan and voltage organ are South American, not Anguilliform.
How many species are there now?
A 2019 Nature Communications paper split Electrophorus into three: E. electricus, E. voltai and E. varii. Voltage and DNA both argued for the split.
How strong is the shock?
E. voltai has been measured near 860 V. That is a prey-stun and defence pulse, not a household-current analogy that holds in every tank.
What did Humboldt actually do in 1800?
His account of horses herded into a pool of eels became a European science anecdote. Later readers treated it as a method; it was also travel theatre.
Did electric eels inspire the battery?
Volta and Galvani debates used animal electricity. Electrophorus was a New World exhibit in that argument, not the sole inventor of the pile.
How do they hunt?
A high-voltage volley can freeze prey; a weaker field maps the night water. Kenneth Catania high-speed videos in the 2010s showed doublets that twitch hidden fish.
Are they Least Concern because they shock people?
No. LC reflects a wide Amazon-Orinoco footprint. Dams, drought and capture are local, not a comic-book immunity.
Can a tank specimen represent the wild organ?
Captive voltage and diet differ. Field E. voltai numbers should not be read off a pet-shop tube.
