- 1911, Benito Pérez Galdós, La Primera República:
- Con este vivir fácil y mis calderetas de mújol fresco al medio día, mis fritangas de barbos y bogas por las noches, con algún hojaldre de añadidura, me reconstituí en mi ser normal apartando mis ojos de la cara fea de la muerte.
- With this easy living and my fresh mullet stews for lunch, fried barbel and characin for dinner, with one or another pastry thrown in, I got back to my good old self up and took my eyes away from the ugly face of death.
- 2003, Manuel Julivert, El Sáhara: Tierras, pueblos y culturas:
- Durante esta época tienen lugar en el Banco de Arguin las grandes pescas de mújoles. Los mejores lugares para ello son los alrededores de las grandes islas (Tidra, Kiji) y las proximidades de la costa, muy especialmente la costa al sur del Cabo Timrist.
