Abstract
This paper might perhaps be described as the prologue to a detective story that will reach its denouement some years in the future. The authors are aware of the presence of click-making animals in our local marine environment. They sound like snapping shrimp but probably are not. We have alternative suspects and we have research in progress to help unravel the mystery.
