RV Corella Fisheries Laboratory cooperated with the Admiralty Research Laboratory to identify fish detected by long-range sonar equipment installed at the Admiralty Experimental Station, Perranporth. The RV "Corella" was directed from the shore to an area some 65 km distant, that was returning a strong and extended echo. The "Corella" was able to correlate this target with shoals detected on a conventional echo sounder, and substantial catches of sprats were taken in the area using a midwater trawl. The RV "Corella" was used throughout the 1970s for pioneering studies on fish migration. Individual plaice ("Pleuronectes platessa") fitted with 300 kHz acoustic transponding
Bend-Or spots Unrelated patterns may be confused with Bend-Or spots. Some roan horses have patches of darker hairs called "corn marks" or "corn spots." While these resemble Bend-Or spots, they are linked to solid-colored hair growing in over minor cuts or scratches to the skin, and thus the underlying genetic cause appears to be unrelated. Another pattern seen primarily in some gray horses is dappling, the presence of darker hairs in round shapes against a lighter hair coat. However, dapples are an intermediate stage of the graying process, and will only last a few years. These markings were named after the Thoroughbred
