What about other signals beyond the basic ones covered in OW? For instance, a wider range of sea critters. I've had this same question, and all I can find are a rehashing of the same basic signals.

There is a book called Scubasigns
THe NACD puts out a small handbook of more advanced hand signals.
Books at NACD Online Store
You will also find a good collection of them in the TDI Advanced Trimix Student Manual.

Google "scuba diving communications".
The important thing that should come out of this is that there are different interpretations and different signals - and whatever you choose to use, you should define & agree with your buddies before the dive
